PROGRAMME OVERVIEW

In an era where artificial intelligence is transforming data-driven decision-making, the intersection of AI and data privacy has become a critical priority. With the enforcement of the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, organizations must not only comply with regulatory requirements but also address emerging AI-related privacy and security risks.

This program equips participants with the knowledge, frameworks, and hands-on skills needed to align AI innovations with robust data protection strategies. It covers legal obligations under the DPDP Act, global best practices, AI governance, risk mitigation, and privacy-by-design principles ensuring both compliance and trust in AI-powered systems.

Designed for data protection officers, compliance leaders, IT managers, AI project leads, and strategic decision-makers across government, public sector, Finance sector, healthcare, and other sensitive data domains, this course bridges the gap between regulation and practical implementation. Participants will gain the expertise to navigate complex compliance landscapes, protect sensitive data, and manage AI responsibly in high-stakes environments

OBJECTIVES

·         Gain a comprehensive understanding of emerging data privacy and AI regulations.

·         Understand how regulatory frameworks shape responsible data and AI practices.

·         Examine global perspectives on data protection and AI governance.

·         Apply privacy-by-design and ethical AI principles in real-world contexts.

·         Identify, assess, and mitigate risks in data management and AI applications.

·         Strengthen readiness through practical exercises, case studies, and compliance strategies.

These objectives are structured to deliver a comprehensive and results-oriented training program that enhances participants’ ability to manage cyber risks, meet compliance, and apply advanced tools within the immersive Cyber Theme Park (CTmP) environment.

Cyber Theme Park (CTmP): 

Cyber Theme Park is an experience centre that transforms theoretical knowledge into practical

wisdom. It is a dynamic environment where individuals come together to engage in meaningful

interactions, exchange ideas, and challenge their existing perspectives. We believe that true

learning occurs when theoretical knowledge is applied and tested in real-life scenarios &

situations. Our aim is to bridge the gap between theory and practice by creating an immersive

experience with 4 distinct mindsets Attacker, Protector, Defender, and Overseer that

transforms abstract concepts into tangible outcomes.
