7 steps, in order
The 🔒 row below shows what the full roadmap adds. StationX Membership opens every course and its labs: $299 / year ($24.92/mo billed annually). Infrastructure Labs labs are a separate add-on.
Start here →
Step 1 — How AI works, for security people
Know the kinds of AI, where security teams use them, and why open models change the risk.
Try a free AI security lab: Make it talk (~5 min) → A scripted simulation in your browser. No account needed.
Step 2 — How AI systems are attacked
Name and explain every major attack on AI: poisoning, prompt injection, jailbreaks, model theft and more.
Step 3 — Defending LLMs and AI agents
Apply guardrails, governance and the controls that keep an LLM application safe.
Step 4 — Test AI like an attacker
Know the open-source tools that red-team an LLM, and what each one catches.
Step 5 — AI in security operations
Use AI for defence and testing, and know its limits.
Step 6 — Careers and certification
See the AI security roles, what they pay, and the certification that proves it.
Step 7 — AI-driven security engineering
Direct AI to build real security solutions — the advanced step.
