Certified Agentic Artificial Intelligence Red Team Professional (CAAIRTP) Certification Program by Tonex

The Certified Agentic Artificial Intelligence Red Team Professional (CAAIRTP) Certification Program by Tonex prepares professionals to evaluate, challenge, and strengthen autonomous and semi-autonomous Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems from an adversarial security perspective. Participants learn how agentic AI architectures operate, how agents use tools and memory, how multi-step reasoning can introduce attack paths, and how red team methodologies can uncover weaknesses before they are exploited in real environments.
The program uses a practical training approach that includes exercises, real-world case studies, and examples of processes and documentation used in agentic AI security assessment projects. Participants examine threat modeling, prompt-based attacks, tool abuse, privilege escalation, memory manipulation, unsafe autonomy, model exploitation, and defensive validation.
Cybersecurity is central to agentic AI because autonomous systems may interact with sensitive data, applications, Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), and operational workflows. Effective cybersecurity testing helps organizations identify attack surfaces, validate safeguards, reduce unintended agent behavior, and improve the resilience of AI-enabled business and mission environments.
Learning Objectives
Upon successful completion of this program, participants will be able to:
- Explain core concepts, architectures, and operational patterns used in agentic Artificial Intelligence systems.
