Fuzzing with AI - New Course on SecDim Learn
Code review, static analysis, and example-based unit tests all work from cases a developer or reviewer could imagine ahead of time. Real bugs tend to hide in the inputs no one wrote a test for.
Fuzzing takes the opposite approach. You point a fuzzer at a target, feed it large volumes of generated and mutated input, and watch which inputs reach new code paths or trigger a crash. Over time it reaches parts of the program hand-written tests never touch.
We released Fuzzing with AI on SecDim Learn to teach this from first principles rather than tool trivia. It is an advanced course covering coverage-guided fuzzing, property-based testing, and API fuzzing, and it shows where AI genuinely helps with the setup without pretending it replaces the security work.
The course is hands-on and aimed at developers and security engineers who want to add fuzzing to real projects. It covers how to build a harness, choose and improve a seed corpus, read fuzzer output, and triage what the fuzzer finds.
Topics covered include:
-
Coverage-guided fuzzing fundamentals
-
Property-based testing
-
API fuzzing
-
Writing and generating fuzz harnesses
-
Building and refining seed corpora
-
Reading fuzzer output and triaging findings
-
Using AI to draft harnesses, corpora, and candidate properties
-
Wiring fuzzing into a CI pipeline
The course includes practical labs that run several of these techniques against real targets, so you finish with a workflow you can reuse.
If you write code and rely on tests to catch bad input, fuzzing is the discipline that covers the cases you did not anticipate.
