The goal of this course is to explain how artificial intelligence is becoming one of the major tools in our security arsenal. The problem is that, unless daddy or mommy you have a specific type of degree, you are at the mercy of product vendors, collaborators, ChatGPT, or search engines to understand these concepts. This course demystifies Artificial Intelligence and its relationships.

This interactive course will teach security professionals how to conduct data science techniques to manipulate and analyze security data to uncover valuable insights. The course will cover a few topics from data preparation, feature engineering and selection, exploratory data analysis, data visualization, machine learning, model evaluation and optimization and finally, implementing at scale.

Student Requirements:

Technical Skills: Comfortable with some basic Python programming and Jupyter Notebooks or Visual Studio (VS) Code.

Class Materials Needed: Students will be required to bring their own laptops. The laptops will need to be installed with Python3 and Jupyter Notebooks or Visual Studio (VS) Code.

Course outline:
  • Introduction to Data Science
  • Introduction to Python & Jupyter Notebooks
  • Overview of Data Preparation and Feature Engineering
  • Overview of Machine Learning for Anomaly Detection: Supervised & Unsupervised Learning
