Microsoft Security Copilot: Boosts AI-Powered Cybersecurity

Microsoft Security Copilot a year ago to help defenders quickly and accurately identify, investigate, and resolve security occurrences

Since cyberattacks are faster and more complicated than humans, AI agents are needed for protection

Due to the amount of intrusions, manual security teams and disconnected defences struggle to swiftly identify hazardous communications and leverage data-driven insights for cyber risk management

Cyberattacks are rising exponentially, with Microsoft Threat Intelligence processing 84 trillion signals everyday and 7,000 password attacks each second. AI agents must be used to scale cyber defences to keep up with this threat scenario

Microsoft Defender's Phishing Triage Agent accurately classifies phishing signals to identify cyberthreats and false alarms. Based on admin input, it improves detection and justifies its decisions

Microsoft Intune's Vulnerability repair Agent prioritises Windows OS patches and fixes app and policy configuration issues with administrator approval

BlueVoyant's SecOps Tooling Agent assesses a security operations centre (SOC) and controls to improve controls, efficacy, and compliance

A successful AI revolution requires strong cybersecurity. As organisations rapidly use generative AI, the necessity to protect and govern AI development, uptake, and use in the workplace grows

To satisfy this demand, Microsoft Defender now includes Google VertexAI and every Azure AI Foundry model in AI security posture management, beyond Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services

To prevent sensitive data from being entered into generative AI programs like ChatGPT, Copilot Chat, DeepSeek, and Google Gemini, security departments can apply DLP policies
