Dive into the rapidly evolving world of Machine Learning Operations (MLOps) and AI Security with our intensive 3-day boot camp. MLOps bridges the gap between data science and operation teams, delivering continuous collaboration and integration to drive the efficient production of AI models. Similarly, AI Security focuses on protecting AI systems from potential vulnerabilities, a critical skillset given the increasing reliance on AI in modern infrastructures. By mastering these skills, you'll be able to streamline machine learning projects and bolster security within your organization.
Working in a hands-on workshop style environment guided by our AI security expert, you’ll explore a wide range of topics and hands-on labs designed to provide a robust understanding of both MLOps and AI Security. Starting from an introduction to MLOps, you'll uncover the importance of this discipline, its distinction from DevOps and DataOps, and its lifecycle. You'll explore MLOps tools and techniques, including MLflow and Kubeflow, along with pipeline components and best practices. You will be able to set up an MLOps environment, automate ML workflows, monitor and manage models, and implement vital security measures in real-world situations. Lastly, you'll dive into the world of AI Security, exploring the AI threat landscape and best practices while applying basic security measures in a lab environment. The boot camp wraps up with advanced topics in AI Security, covering AI privacy, ethical considerations, adversarial attacks, and defenses.
Upon completion, you will have gained practical, hands-on skills in operationalizing and securing machine learning workflows, implementing best practices in model management, and understanding ethical considerations in AI Security. Our boot camp ensures that you will have the necessary knowledge to navigate MLOps and AI Security effectively, making your machine learning projects more efficient and secure.
