Microsoft today announced Security Copilot, a new ChatGPT-like assistant powered by artificial intelligence that takes advantage of Microsoft's threat intelligence footprint to make faster decisions during incident response and to help with threat hunting and security reporting.
"Microsoft Security Copilot is an AI-powered security analysis tool that enables analysts to respond to threats quickly, process signals at machine speed, and assess risk exposure in minutes," Redmond says.
It empowers security teams to manage complex security situations more efficiently, and its primary goal is to enhance security analysts' capabilities by expediting threat intelligence summarizing and interpreting, enabling them to spot malicious activity a lot faster while analyzing web traffic.
"In security, minutes count. With Security Copilot, defenders can respond to security incidents within minutes instead of hours or days," said Microsoft Security corporate vice president Vasu Jakkal.
"Security Copilot will simplify complexity and amplify the capabilities of security teams by summarizing and making sense of threat intelligence, helping defenders see through the noise of web traffic and identify malicious activity," Microsoft said.
While Microsoft revealed today that its new AI-powered security analysis tool is currently available in private preview, the company is yet to share details regarding its public rollout.
