Running from February 15 to March 15, 2025, this hackathon provides an opportunity for cybersecurity professionals, ethical hackers, developers, and students to cultivate the critical skills and develop the open-source tools needed to address emerging AI security challenges. The hackathon aims to inspire participants to develop expertise in AI security, identify and support cybersecurity talent, and drive progress in AI security research through open-source contributions. The AI Cybersecurity Hackathon continues this tradition, offering participants a chance to build and contribute critical tools that will shape the future of AI security. Don't miss this opportunity to develop valuable AI security skills, contribute to cutting-edge cybersecurity solutions, and connect with a global community of innovators. SANS Institute, the global leader in cybersecurity training and research, is launching the AI Cybersecurity Hackathon, a month-long event designed to address the urgent need for the development of these tools. SANS has a long history of empowering the cybersecurity community, not just through training but by developing and distributing open-source security tools. "AI is transforming cybersecurity at an unprecedented rate, but organizations are struggling to find professionals with the right expertise to secure these evolving technologies," emphasized Rob Lee, Chief of Research at SANS Institute. Participants will have the opportunity to develop AI-driven security solutions that address emerging threats, enhance system security, and improve data protection.
