How the AI Safety in the Classroom Toolkit equips students with practical skills for safe AI
Palo Alto Networks and Cyberlite introduced a new tool that aims to raise your child’s digital confidence. The AI Safety in the Classroom Toolkit brings a clear goal, give students the skills to use generative AI with awareness and responsibility. The resource is now available in English and Bahasa Indonesia.
The fast growth of generative AI has changed how threats work online. Palo Alto Networks’ Unit 42 research shows how social engineering attacks grow stronger with AI. Attackers now use deepfakes and personalised messages to trick users. Students face these risks each time they go online. The toolkit helps them spot signs of manipulation early.
The resource offers short 30 minute lessons. Each module keeps the content simple so educators and parents can teach the material without needing technical knowledge. Lessons guide students through the basics of generative AI, prompt writing, bias detection, deepfake spotting, and the role of recommendation engines in privacy. The design makes the toolkit easy to add to school programs or home learning.
Palo Alto Networks aims to support young users by giving them tools to protect their digital life. The company has worked with Cyberlite for years. Their earlier project distributed more than 100000 cybersafety workbooks across the Asia Pacific region. The new toolkit extends that mission. It focuses on building habits that help students use AI safely.
Cyberlite Co Founder Michelle Yao said the partnership gives educators a practical way to teach safe and ethical AI habits. Palo Alto Networks executive Lisa Sim added that the lessons help non experts deliver classroom ready instruction with confidence.
The toolkit is free to access. Parents and teachers can download it and start teaching right away. The material opens more conversations at home and in school about safe online behaviour. The goal is simple. Give students clear skills they can use each day when they engage with AI platforms.
