    Certified Offensive AI Security Professional (COASP) validates the competencies required for practitioners who need to demonstrate offensive AI security skills, emulating adversaries, validating defenses, and leading red-team/blue-team exercises to keep AI resilient, reliable, and auditable

    The Certified Offensive AI Security Professional (COASP) equips you to identify and neutralize AI-specific threats before attackers do. And Bridges security, engineering, and data science so controls exist across the full AI life cycle.

    Participants will gain hands-on experience to perform end-to-end adversarial testing and deliver defensive validation evidence including the ability to simulate adversarial AI kill chains, Harden AI architectures by secure system prompts, context windows, tool integrations, RAG pipelines, and agent memory, Conducting AI security assessments aligned to MITRE ATLAS, OWASP LLM/ML Top 10, NIST AI RMF, and DoD Test & Evaluation practices , This course covers how to build SOC-ready capabilities for AI-focused detection logic, incident playbooks, and forensic procedures , & how to execute prompt injection, adversarial prompting , Assess AI supply-chain risk , Implement defensive engineering controls and Produce assurance and compliance artifacts.

    By the end of the course, learners will be well-prepared to take the Certified Offensive AI Security Professional (COASP) exam and demonstrate the ability to exploit vulnerabilities in LLMs and agents, and build defense that survive real world attacks, learners will master offensive techniques that break AI before the attackers do.

    Course Overview:

    A skills focus enables the student to better absorb the subject matter and perform successfully on the job.  This is not death by power point. The course is aligned with information assurance operators and executing hands-on labs to secure Windows systems. Lecture and labs start with quick review of Active Directory and group policy to enforce security mechanisms within the Windows architecture.  Students then gain network experience and use sniffing to help exemplify the benefit of learning wired and wireless security configurations.  PowerShell is made for SecOps/DevOps automation and students will learn to write PowerShell scripts to automate security operations and Desired State Configuration (DSC).  The course concludes with exercising real attack strategies to demonstrate the effectives of properly securing your host.

    Attendees to TN-969: Windows Security Administrator course will receive TechNow approved course materials and expert instruction.
