Management of AI and Cyber Security

In an era where technology reigns, Artificial Intelligence (AI) rises as the catalyst for evolution. The magic lies within generative AI, a trailblazing force that reshapes how we navigate challenges, carving new paths in automation, content creation, and beyond.

Yet, with remarkable innovation comes heightened vulnerabilities. Cyber threats lurk in the shadows of progress; hence, the urgent question today is not only about harnessing the power of AI, but also bolstering our digital defences.

Our mission goes beyond exploring the frontier of generative AI, it's about entwining it with robust cybersecurity. Equip yourself to harness AI's boundless potential while conquering the cyber threats of tomorrow. Experience the best of both worlds. Join us.

In the MBA-module Management of AI and Cyber Security we offer insight into these questions and help you develop practical tools to manage your organization as CXO, also in tumultuous times.

• Content incorporates your work practice and you meet experts from the field
• Developing by learning from each other
• Create your very own MBA and determine your own pace
• AI and Cyber Security on the strategic agenda

Both topics, and especially the combination of them, should be on the strategic agenda of every organization that wants to stay relevant and futureproof.

It is not enough to employ a few experts on the subject, it is at management level that these topics should be discussed and understood to respond timely to both opportunities and risks. The knowledge and skills you develop in this module enables you to take ownership of the resilience and flexibility of your organization in times of digital transformation.
