Frequently asked questions
What are the prerequisites required before enrolling in the Certified AI Security Professional Course?
You should have a basic knowledge of running Linux commands and also be familiar with any scripting language like Python, Golang, or Ruby. It will definitely be helpful.
What’s included in the AI Security Professional course package?
You will receive 3 years of access to the videos, 60 days of browser-based labs, a PDF manual, checklists, 30+ Guided Exercises, 24/7 student support through a dedicated Mattermost channel, and one exam attempt.
Do the Labs for the AI Security Professional Course Start Immediately after enrollment?
No, the course does not begin automatically upon enrollment. After purchasing, students will have the opportunity to select their preferred start date. Course access will be provided from the chosen start date.
Does the AI Security Professional Course come with CPE points?
Yes, the AI security Professional course gives you 36 CPE points after the completion of the course.
What is the Exam Format for the AI Security Course?
The exam is a task-oriented exam where you will have to solve 5 challenges in 6 hours and have an additional 24 hours to complete the report and submit it for evaluation. For more information, visit this link.
Should I go to an exam center, or is the exam online?
Yes, it is an online exam. You can take the exam from the comfort of your home or office.
How long is the AI Security certification valid?
The AI Security Professional Certification is a lifetime credential; therefore, there is no need to worry about renewals. Once you get it, it will be valid for the rest of your career.
What career advancement and salary benefits can I expect from completing the Certified AI Security Professional course?
Let me be straight with you—AI security is becoming as essential as knowing how to use email. Every company is rushing to adopt AI, but almost nobody knows how to secure it properly. That’s where CAISP comes in.
Currently, traditional cybersecurity engineers make $95,000–$130,000. But AI Security Engineers? They start at $152,773, and with CAISP certification, you’re looking at $175,689–$213,882. That’s a 15-40% bump just for having the right certification. Meanwhile, professionals without it stay stuck around $110,000–$120,000, usually in support roles watching others get promoted.
Here’s what makes this different: the AI security market is racing toward $234 billion by 2032, but there are barely any certified professionals to fill these roles. Companies are desperate. They’re implementing AI everywhere but have no idea how to protect it. When you walk in with CAISP certification, you’re not just another candidate—you’re the solution to their biggest nightmare.
Certified AI Security Professional isn’t just a piece of paper either. It’s comprehensive, hands-on training that actually teaches you to secure AI systems. Security engineers, red teamers, and AppSec professionals are all pivoting into AI security because they see what’s coming—this will be baseline knowledge for every security professional within five years.
