AI Cyber Bootcamp at Black Hat USA 2026
Four-day AI cybersecurity bootcamp at Black Hat USA 2026: machine learning, LLMs, AI red-teaming, and SOC automation on real security data. Aug 1 to 4, Las Vegas.
Four days across the full span of AI in security
The AI Cyber Bootcamp is GTK Cyber’s most complete offering: four days that move from data science foundations through generative AI, AI agents, and adversarial AI, all on real security data. It runs at Black Hat USA 2026 in Las Vegas, August 1 to 4.
What the four days cover
- Machine learning for security: supervised classifiers (Random Forest, Naive Bayes, KNN, SVM) for phishing, malware, and intrusion detection, and unsupervised methods for hunting and clustering
- Data science foundations: Pandas and Python for large security datasets, preprocessing, and feature engineering
- Generative AI for security: LLMs for spam and social engineering detection, threat intel summarization, and log analysis
- AI agents: building agents for triage, analysis, and automation
- Adversarial AI: hands-on evasion, poisoning, prompt injection, and RAG poisoning, plus the defenses
- SOC automation: applying all of it to threat hunting and incident response
Half the time is labs. Every student leaves with working code.
Who should take it
Security professionals who want to apply AI, machine learning, and data science across security operations, and team leads who want one intensive that covers the whole span so they can bring the skills back to a team. It suits people who expect the SOC to change and want to be ahead of it.
