What is FAST?
Two cohorts.
One mission.
FAST builds the technical depth and governance fluency that frontier AI demands — through dedicated programs for security practitioners and for the policymakers who shape the rules around them. The first Singapore technical cohort ran April 20–26, 2026, as part of AI Security Bootcamp (AISB). The next cohort planned for September/October 2026 in Singapore.
FAST is a fully funded, 5-7 day intensive program for security professionals focused on securing frontier AI systems from emerging threats.
Participants learn to threat-model, attack, and defend frontier AI systems, and leave with the skills and network to step into roles at the labs, agencies, and research orgs shaping the field.
Past participants have been affiliated with Meta, Microsoft, LinkedIn, GovTech Singapore, Cyber Security Agency of Singapore, Monetary Authority of Singapore, Public Utilities Board (PUB), Darktrace, Netcraft, STM Cyber, Reclaim Security, Intropic.
Applications close July 20. We review on a rolling basis and encourage you to apply as early as possible.

FAQ
Can I bring my own project?
You need to apply to at least one mentor. That said, there's often room to shape the project together with the guidance of your mentor.
