ITMO Opens Lab to Train AI Infosecurity Experts
Over last year alone, the demand for information security experts in AI grew by 30%. In parallel to this growing demand, there is also a lack of professionals with the necessary qualifications for this field on the market. One of the reasons for it is that no one trains such specialists. In response to that, ITMO and the company Raft launched a research laboratory called LLM Security Lab that is meant to teach students to work in the field of infosec for LLM and AI business solutions.
