AI security training soars amid rising threats

Enrollment in AI security training programs has surged 665% globally, signaling that organizations are treating AI risk as a near-term business issue rather than a future concern. For CIOs and technology leaders, this underscores the need to build AI security capabilities now to reduce exposure to vulnerabilities, protect customer and operational data, and avoid slowdowns in AI adoption caused by unmanaged risk. IT organizations will need to formalize governance, upskill teams, and embed security practices into AI development and deployment workflows.
