AI Security Professional
Certified Artificial Intelligence Security Professional (CAISP)
2026 edition
Self-paced PECB training delivered via myPECB.
Global training partner Aegentra is an official PECB authorised training partner and an official CompTIA partner.
AI security includes the models, data and infrastructure a system depends on. CAISP connects AI foundations with attack analysis, safeguards and security operations so you can reason about how an AI-enabled service might fail—and what evidence supports its protection.
