Secure AI Builder Bootcamp

Build real AI agents. Then intentionally break them. 4 weeks of hands-on security training in your own AWS sandbox — with red-teaming, secrets management, and OWASP Top 10 for LLMs baked in from day one.

Built for Security Pros
Who Refuse to Be Left Behind

The security industry is transitioning to AI — fast. The professionals who thrive will be the ones who built with it, not just read about it.

Alien Brain Trust is a hands-on AI training company built specifically for security professionals. We exist to close the gap between what the security industry teaches and what the AI era actually requires.

Founded by Jared Little — 25+ years in enterprise cybersecurity, IAM, and PAM across heavily regulated industries, leading technology transformation from the inside — ABT is built on one hard-won insight: you cannot develop AI threat intuition from a certification or a whitepaper. You develop it by building real integrations, attacking them in a controlled environment, and seeing exactly what breaks.

That’s the entire philosophy behind everything we build. Hands-on over lecture. Real AWS infrastructure over slide decks. Red-teaming your own work over passive consumption. Security professionals who go through our programs leave with working code, real credentials management experience, and pattern recognition that only comes from having done it.

🛡️

Security-First AI

Every lesson is framed around what can go wrong — and how to build so it doesn’t.

🔧

Hands-On, Always

Real AWS sandboxes, real integrations, real red-teaming. No simulated environments.

🎯

Built to Stay Relevant

Curriculum designed around the AI threats and skills that matter right now, not in five years.

📊

Practitioner-Led

25+ years of enterprise security experience — not theory. Every concept comes from production.

🛠️ Pilot Cohort — Free — Small Group, By Invitation

Help build the course. Get the full experience free.

The Secure AI Builder Bootcamp is under active development and we’re looking for a small group of security professionals to pilot it with us. You get the complete 4-week hands-on experience — real AWS sandbox, working AI agents, secrets management, red-teaming, and security architecture docs — completely free. In exchange, your feedback shapes the curriculum before it goes live. No fluff, no slide decks. Just building, breaking, and learning together.

  • Week 1: AI Foundations & Secure Lab Setup — AI literacy, secrets deep dive, secure prompting, one-click Terraform sandbox on AWS, start/stop scripts
  • Week 2: Build Your First Secure Agent — Working agent with tools & memory, handle secrets in live code, reusable prompt library, IDE + repo setup
  • Week 3: Real Project & Red Team Your Own Agent — Build a practical agent (Research Assistant, Ticket Analyzer, or Knowledge Manager), threat model it, then intentionally attack it and apply fixes
  • Week 4: Polish, Security Docs & Demo Day — Security architecture docs, Threat Log, one-page Security Case Study, live Demo Day
  • Free for pilot participants. OWASP Top 10 for LLMs, Terraform, AWS, prompt injection defense, and real credential management — all in one program. Your feedback directly shapes the course before public launch.
