Master Agents for
Defensive Security
Security work is changing, and defenders need more reach. Learn to use agents to amplify your own abilities and systems, with your judgment at the center.
Become the defender who
builds what comes next.
Take the security expertise you already have and give it greater reach. Build agents that work alongside you, extend your workflows, and amplify your abilities.
I’ll teach you how to develop that capability to meet the scale of the challenges that lie ahead.

How we teach

The instructor

Faan Rossouw
I’m a security researcher and instructor. I’ve taught thousands of defenders to find adversaries in network and endpoint telemetry, and earlier in my career I developed offensive security tooling and taught courses on that too.
When agents arrived, I went looking for a course that taught how to build with them from the foundations up. It didn’t exist, so I built my own agentic defense system and turned what I learned into AionSec: the course I couldn’t find.





What students say
Feedback from students in my courses and workshops.
One of the best training classes I've taken in years. As someone who has been using Agentic AI on a daily basis since late last year, I can confidently say this class is for all levels. The labs have a great flow. I paid for this class myself and I'm glad that I did.
The course is clear, well-structured, and presented with a strong, confident grasp of the material. If you want to learn agentic AI and apply it to security in a methodical and hands-on way, he's someone who can genuinely help you deepen your understanding and elevate your practice.
Faan's in-depth knowledge and his amazing way of explaining things in the KISS format makes complex topics genuinely accessible. I highly recommend his trainings and will definitely be attending more sessions.
Each lesson is well designed to bring students of all levels up to speed and make complex concepts digestible. His experience and passion impart a contagious desire for learning—fun and thoughtful while maintaining lightheartedness through high-level technical material.
