As part of Innovate UK BridgeAI programme, new free cyber security training is now available on demand from The Alan Turing Institute.

The seven-hour online course is designed to help you understand the risks of using artificial intelligence (AI) and how to protect your business from emerging cyber threats. It's aimed at small and medium-sized business leaders, business professionals and IT managers who want practical guidance they can apply straight away.

During the course, you will learn how to assess and manage AI-related security risks, put strong safeguards in place, and build an effective incident response plan. The course also explains how to stay compliant with UK standards and data protection regulations.
