ICA Specialist Certificate in AI Threats & Risk Mitigation

Course Overview

AI is reshaping the threat landscape faster than most organisations can respond. Deepfake fraud, adversarial attacks, model manipulation and AI‑driven financial crime are becoming more advanced — and harder to detect.

This course equips you with the knowledge and skills to: 

  • Stay ahead of fast-moving AI threats - Gain a clear, up-to-date understanding of how adversarial AI is evolving and what it means for financial crime, fraud, and cyber security — so you're never caught off guard by emerging risks. 
  • Identify vulnerabilities before attackers do - Learn how weaknesses in data, models, and deployment environments create exploitable gaps and understand what it takes to close them before they become costly. 
  •  Understand AI governance - Describe the key components of governance and security frameworks and their relevance to organisational risk management. 
  • Navigate the regulatory landscape with confidence - Cut through the complexity of the global AI regulatory environment with real-world case studies that bring emerging compliance obligations to life. 
  •  Drive collaboration to improve organisational resilience - Understand who the key stakeholders are in your AI defence strategy and how to bring them together. 

Course Content

  • The Evolution of Adversarial AI and Threats.
  • Types of AI threats: Explore security threats targeting AI systems and the use of malicious AI models in attacks.
  • AI governance and security frameworks: Develop strategies for model risk management, bias detection, secure development lifecycles and AI incident response.
  • Navigating the uncertain regulatory environment - Prepare governance structures for evolving regulations, supported by case studies on regulatory impact.
  • Defensive AI techniques including Adversarial Training, Anomaly Detection and Red Teaming: Address risks across data, deployment and vendor contexts.
  • Establish stakeholder cooperation: Build effective teams and communication channels to support AI threat defence.
