Sec Guy

The rules of cybersecurity have changed. Attackers are using generative AI to write polymorphic malware and craft uncatchable phishing emails. Defenders must learn to fight back at machine speed.

In this inaugural episode of the Sec Guy Podcast, we kick off our full audio course for the CompTIA Security AI+ (SecAI+) certification. We break down exactly what this new exam covers, why it’s critical for your career, and how to start thinking like an AI defender.

In this episode, we cover:

• The Threat Landscape: How GenAI has shifted the battlefield from human-speed to machine-speed.
• Exam Logistics: Breakdown of the SecAI+ (CY0-001) domains, release dates, and passing scores.
• The Experience Myth: Why you might be more qualified than you think (referencing the "Cracking the Experience Code" guide).
• The 3 Pillars of AI Security:
  1. Protecting the AI (Adversarial ML, Data Poisoning)
  2. Using AI to Defend (Threat Hunting, Anomaly Detection)
  3. Governance (Compliance, Ethics, Bias)
