AI Security for Everyone
AI is now part of nearly every job — which means every employee needs to get two things right: using AI safely, and using it responsibly. This whole-company primer covers both, in plain language, no security background required. Every module opens on a real story, then gives you one practical thing you can do about it — so you leave with judgment you'll use on Monday.
Curriculum
Eleven short, standalone modules in two parts — using AI safely, then using it responsibly. Deliver the whole path, or pick the modules that fit your team.
AI at Work
How AI adoption quietly makes every employee part of the attack surface — and the company's liability. The stakes-setter.
Don't Feed Secrets to AI
Anything you paste into a public tool can be stored, exposed, or used for training.
Shadow AI
The risk of reaching for a brand-new, unvetted AI tool IT can't see or govern — and the corporate data that walks out with it.
When AI Gets Hijacked
How hidden instructions in an email, document, or web page can turn an AI assistant against you — and why to distrust one acting on untrusted content.
Deepfakes & AI Scams
Cheap voice and video impersonation — verify big or unusual requests through a second channel.
What You're Handing Over
What you actually grant when you connect AI — assistants, agents, browser extensions — to your email, files, and calendar.
AI Notetakers & Meeting Bots
What that meeting bot is recording, who can access it, and why the person who invited it owns the consent problem.
When AI Is Confidently Wrong
Fluent isn't correct, and you own what you submit — as a wave of sanctioned lawyers and one airline found out.
When AI Judges People
AI in hiring, promotion, or evaluation can encode discrimination and real legal liability.
Who Owns the Output
What you can and can't own — or accidentally infringe — when you ship AI-generated content.
Why This Is Required
How AI literacy became a legal obligation, not a nice-to-have.
