What Students Say
Unedited course evaluations from Black Hat USA 2026.
Every quote below comes from a course evaluation form filled in by a student at Black Hat USA 2026. They are anonymous because the evaluations are anonymous.
No criticism has been trimmed. Two students wanted more lab time and fewer slides, and one wanted more attack functions in the Dojo. Those comments are here, whole, alongside the praise. One quote is marked as an excerpt: a passing personal remark about a member of staff was removed at her request, and the elision is shown with [...] rather than closed up silently. We publish no star rating, because the evaluations asked for written comments and not scores, so any number here would be one we made up.
AI Cyber Bootcamp
Course details →6 evaluations
"This was hands down one of the best bootcamps I've attended. The material was practical and relevant."
"Very good course. Instructors were very knowledgeable, always willing to assist and answer questions. Presented the material at a level which met the audience. Labs were very good and reinforced the topics. Clear and easy to follow."
"The hands-on practice sessions were a bit short, so it difficult to keep up, but overall, it was an excellent training program"
"I enjoyed the content of the lectures and the labs. For future it may help to add more attack functions on the lab side. Some small prompt attacks explored in the Dojo, maybe more of that (but Don't drop the data poisoning). Thanks"
"Super cool class & love it! / A tad too many slides, but it was a lot of ground to cover!"
"Overall very good & recommend."
