SUMMARY:Teaching AI Security: Hands-On LLM Hardening with Docker Desktop and Security Gateways
DESCRIPTION:<p style="text-align: center;"></p><h1 style="text-align: center;">Teaching AI Security: Hands-On LLM Hardening with Docker Desktop and Security Gateways</h1><p style="text-align: center;">Webinar&nbsp;Friday, August 21, 2026<br>10 - 11 AM Pacific Time<br><a href="https://ncytecenter.wildapricot.org/event-6766528" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Register Here</a></p><p style="text-align: left;">Integrating AI security into cybersecurity programs can be challenging due to limited budgets, IT restrictions, and unpredictable API costs. This interactive session provides instructors with a robust, repeatable framework for teaching AI hardening. In this webinar, the presenter will demonstrate how to use Docker Desktop to run local, open-source Large Language Models (LLMs) on student machines, establishing a safe, isolated sandbox. Wewill also show how to route and secure this local traffic through a security gateway proxy to inspect, log, and filter malicious payloads. Drawing from open-source GitHub materials and proven classroom setups, attendees will receive ready-to-use Docker configurations, step-by-step lab scenarios for vulnerabilities like prompt injection, and effective pedagogical strategies for teaching AI defense.</p><hr><h2>Presenter: Joshua Wortz</h2><p></p>&nbsp;Joshua Wortz combines leadership experience with advanced cybersecurity expertise to deliver engaging, real-world instruction. He earned a Bachelor of Arts in Pastoral Ministry from the University of Valley Forge and is completing a Master of Science in Cybersecurity Operations and Leadership at the University of San Diego (expected 2026). Joshua specializes in the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF), red/blue team operations, identity-based threats, cloud security, and open-source intelligence (OSINT) and holds the following professional certifications:&nbsp;<ul>    <li>Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) — ISC²</li>    <li>Proofpoint Certified AI Agent Security Specialist — Proofpoint</li>    <li>Microsoft Certified Educator (MCE) — Microsoft</li>    <li>AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner — Amazon Web Services</li>    <li>Microsoft Certified: Azure Fundamentals / Azure Data Fundamentals / Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals</li></ul>
