The "Artificial intelligence and cybersecurity in finance" project focuses on the recently relevant and popular area of cybersecurity. This issue has intensified with the increase in digital services and online shopping. Reducing its level in the region is a task that requires numerous activities dedicated to a variety of social groups. Young people are particularly important as they enter independent life and should be aware of the problems associated with the rapidly developing generative technology (artificial intelligence) and related risks. Education in this area is vital and requires appropriate innovative educational methods. This project is the answer to that need. Thanks to the cooperation with an internationally acclaimed scientist, modern teaching methods incorporating artificial intelligence will be introduced, and awareness and knowledge of cybersecurity will increase.

The "Artificial intelligence and cybersecurity in finance" project includes 2 modules - scientific and educational, implementing the following initiatives:

1. Cybersecurity in finance;
2. Implementing Blended Education in decentralized finance (DEFI ) using artificial intelligence (AI).

The project has been co-financed by the Metropolis GZM within the framework of the "Metropolitan Science and Education Support Fund" program for the years 2022-2024 in the amount of PLN 77,976.00. All activities planned in the project will be carried out in 2024.

The project was initiated and prepared by dr hab. Bożena Frączek, prof. UE, with the support of Internationalization.

The project team includes:

• dr hab. Bożena Frączek, prof. UE - project manager;
• dr hab. Monika Wieczorek-Kosmala, prof. UE;
