Scope

AI Security

Use the published topics to assess how this credential relates to your responsibilities.

Assessment

Examination required

Enrollment or admission alone does not award the certification. Passing the assessment does.

02 / The published scope

Domains & objectives.

Explore the knowledge and capabilities covered by each domain.

Domain objectives / 01

LLM red teaming

  • Define an authorized testing objective and the behavior under evaluation.
  • Explain how to document observations and limitations of a model assessment.
Preparation checkpoint

Write an assessment brief for an AI application: define authorization, behavior to evaluate, permitted test conditions, and how observations will be recorded.

Be ready to explain

Explain how a reproducible observation differs from an isolated unexpected response, and how to report the limitations of the assessment.

These study suggestions help you prepare; they do not add exam requirements or domain weights.

Who it’s for.

Penetration testers, application security engineers, and researchers evaluating LLM applications and agent workflows.

Before you begin

Bring relevant professional experience and a clear description of your own contribution to security projects. Applications should be accurate and respect client confidentiality.
