The AI Security and Emerging Technologies Learning Path helps SME leaders, AI adopters, compliance professionals, data protection personnel, and technical teams understand the cybersecurity, governance, and regulatory challenges associated with artificial intelligence, blockchain, and other emerging technologies. It is designed to support organisations that want to benefit from innovation while managing the new risks and responsibilities it introduces.

The AI Security and Emerging Technologies Learning Path helps SME leaders, AI adopters, compliance professionals, data protection personnel, and technical teams understand the cybersecurity, governance, and regulatory challenges associated with artificial intelligence, blockchain, and other emerging technologies. It is designed to support organisations that want to benefit from innovation while managing the new risks and responsibilities it introduces.

The pathway begins with secure AI adoption, providing an initial understanding of AI-related cybersecurity risks, organisational controls, and the EU AI Act. It then examines AI-enabled threats, ethical considerations, the protection of sensitive information, and the responsible use of AI systems. Supporting courses on cybersecurity risk management, European laws and regulations, and GDPR help learners place emerging technologies within a broader organisational governance framework. The final course extends the pathway to blockchain technologies, introducing relevant vulnerabilities and approaches for protecting blockchain systems, transactions, credentials, and digital assets.

CyberSuite is a Digital Europe Programme project that aims to make advanced cybersecurity capabilities easier for SMEs to access and use. Its Academy brings together interdisciplinary courses, practical exercises, curated resources, and CyberSuite tools so that organisations can approach emerging technologies from technical, legal, ethical, and business perspectives.

By completing this Learning Path, learners will be able to identify risks associated with AI and blockchain, understand relevant regulatory requirements, assess organisational readiness, select appropriate safeguards, and support the secure and responsible adoption of emerging technologies.
