Prerequisites for AI Cyber Defense Ops

Although some experience with IT and cybersecurity concepts is preferred, this course is absolutely appropriate for beginners! The course starts off very gently and builds from there. You don’t need much experience with Claude either to get started.

You can choose to use this course as a reference guide and complete it without any hardware. If you want to follow along with the examples, any machine capable of running Claude is sufficient.
