AI Security and Data Privacy Essentials course cover

AI helps every team. The safe habits have not caught up yet.

01

Information goes further than people think

Chats are kept, files are stored, add-ons read whole web pages and connected assistants can reach email and drives. Most people have never been shown where their words go.

02

Scams got smoother

AI writes polished messages, clones familiar voices and fakes video calls. The old clues, like spelling mistakes, no longer protect your team.

03

Nobody is sure what to do when something looks wrong

Without clear habits, people guess, wait or stay quiet, and small slips turn into bigger problems.

Learning outcomes

What you will be able to do

Six practical outcomes, each practiced in an exercise and checked in the final assessment or the capstone.

  1. Explain how information travels through AI tools at work and why safe AI use is part of every role.
  2. Decide what information never goes into an AI tool and share only the minimum needed with redaction.
  3. Apply everyday privacy basics to AI use, including purpose, notice, consent for recordings and a dated view of privacy laws.
  4. Recognize prompt injection and unsafe AI output, and limit what connected AI tools can read and do.
  5. Spot AI-enabled phishing, voice cloning and deepfakes and verify requests through a trusted channel.
  6. Keep AI accounts and settings secure, review vendor data settings and report AI security and privacy incidents quickly.

The Camderson method

Simple habits that make AI safer to use in every role

The AI Data Journey Map and Strip, Swap, Shrink

Goes in · Processed · Kept · Comes back · Connected · Never Share List · Strip · Swap · Shrink

See where information goes, then get the same help from AI while sharing far less.

The Privacy Pause and the Untrusted Content Rule

Whose · What for · Who sees · How long · Expected and told · Least access · Approve before it acts

Treat people's information the way they would expect, and keep connected tools from taking orders from content.

The Call-Back Check and the Output Safety Check

Pause · Verify on a channel you trust · Report · Links · Code and add-ons · Actions · Data · Claims

Stop AI-powered scams in one phone call, and check what AI gives you before you click, install or run it.

The AI Account Checkup, the Settings Scorecard and the Fast Report

Company account · MFA · Passkeys · Connected apps · Shared links · Training · Retention · Report fast

Keep accounts and settings tight, and make reporting quick, easy and welcome.

Share less. Check first. Report fast.

Is this course right for you?

This course is for you if

  • You use AI tools at work with company, customer or colleague information, in any role: customer care, sales, operations, warehouse, finance, HR, marketing, IT or leadership
  • You want clear, practical habits rather than fear or jargon
  • You want your whole team to share the same simple playbook for safe AI use

It is not the right fit if

  • You mainly need to write an AI use policy and a risk review process (CA-AI-007 Responsible AI Use and Governance at Work covers that)
  • You want a full general cybersecurity course (a dedicated course is planned in the School of Technology & Digital Skills)
  • You want a recommendation for a specific AI product or vendor (the course names no products and teaches you how to compare settings)
  • You need legal advice about a specific situation (talk with your privacy or legal adviser)

Neither. You receive a Camderson Academy Certificate of Completion after passing the final assessment and the capstone, a playbook that a person reviews. It is not an academic credential and does not carry continuing education or other professional credit.
