Lock the Doors: AI Security Basics for a Small Office

Updates, app permissions, connectors and a call-back rule for the office without an IT department.

Attackers can now use a newly found flaw within about a day, and AI tools have joined the list of software that needs looking after. This course helps you write one page listing every internet-facing system and AI tool, each with an owner and an update routine. You'll also trim AI app permissions on every Mac and PC, set connectors to read-only with approvals, find the AI tools your staff set up on their own, and write a call-back rule for money and data requests. No code and no new security product, just a 10-minute weekly check you'll actually keep.

About 135 minutes.
