Course Outline
Foundations: Threat Models for Agentic AI
- Categories of agentic threats: misuse, escalation, data leakage, and supply-chain risks
- Adversary profiles and attacker capabilities relevant to autonomous agents
- Mapping assets, trust boundaries, and critical control points for agents
Governance, Policy, and Risk Management
- Governance frameworks for agentic systems (including roles, responsibilities, and approval gates)
- Policy design covering acceptable use, escalation rules, data handling, and auditability
- Compliance considerations and evidence collection for audits
Non-Human Identity & Authentication for Agents
- Designing identities for agents: service accounts, JWTs, and short-lived credentials
- Least-privilege access patterns and just-in-time credentialing
- Identity lifecycle management, rotation, delegation, and revocation strategies
Access Controls, Secrets, and Data Protection
- Fine-grained access control models and capability-based patterns for agents
- Secrets management, encryption-in-transit and at-rest, and data minimization
- Safeguarding sensitive knowledge sources and PII from unauthorized agent access
Observability, Auditing, and Incident Response
- Designing telemetry for agent behavior: intent tracing, command logs, and provenance
- SIEM integration, alerting thresholds, and forensic readiness
- Runbooks and playbooks for managing agent-related incidents and containment
Red-Teaming Agentic Systems
- Planning red-team exercises: defining scope, rules of engagement, and safe failover
- Adversarial techniques: prompt injection, tool misuse, chain-of-thought manipulation, and API abuse
- Executing controlled attacks to measure exposure and impact
Hardening and Mitigations
- Engineering controls: response throttles, capability gating, and sandboxing
- Policy and orchestration controls: approval flows, human-in-the-loop, and governance hooks
- Model and prompt-level defenses: input validation, canonicalization, and output filters
Operationalizing Safe Agent Deployments
- Deployment patterns: staging, canary, and progressive rollout for agents
- Change control, testing pipelines, and pre-deploy safety checks
- Cross-functional governance: security, legal, product, and ops playbooks
Capstone: Red-Team / Blue-Team Exercise
- Perform a simulated red-team attack against a sandboxed agent environment
- Defend, detect, and remediate as the blue team using established controls and telemetry
- Present findings, remediation plans, and policy updates
