About the Academy

The AI Agent Security Academy equips security and engineering leaders with practical frameworks for securing AI agents, MCP servers, and machine-to-machine access at scale. 

Through hands-on workshops, self-paced core sessions, and expert-led discussions, participants learn how Agentic identity threats emerge, how attackers exploit overprivileged and misconfigured agents, and how to implement governance and least privilege across AI workloads.

Graduates receive an official AI Agent Security Certification and digital badge to showcase on LinkedIn — and the expertise to become the champion of AI agent security in their organization.

AI Agent Foundations

Session 1

AI Agent Foundations

Learn about the components of AI Agents, how these agents are connected to other enterprise systems and processes, formulas to use in understanding agent roles and responsibilities, and the big questions you need to be asking from operational and security points of view as agents weave themselves into your world. This self-guided experience can be completed all at once or in parts over time, and you can submit questions to the Astrix team for clarification and guidance throughout the system.

Understanding the CIS AI/LLM Controls Companion (Part 1)

Session 3 - Coming Soon

Understanding the CIS AI/LLM Controls Companion (Part 1)

Learn how to apply the CIS (Center for Internet Security) framework to secure AI agents and modern AI environments. This 60-minute deep dive into the CIS AI/LLM Controls Companion will give you a full breakdown of the guidance in the safeguards from the framework, connect those to practical actions you can take right away, and clarify your path to being compliant and secure using CIS as the north star. The session will go beyond the text by offering real-world examples, showing how they could have been prevented or improved with the safeguards in place, and providing practical guidance to translate those principles into your own world.  ***Session date not announced yet***.
