Security News > 2023 > March > Microsoft unveils AI-powered Security Copilot analysis tool

Microsoft has unveiled Security Copilot, an AI-powered analysis tool that aims to simplify, augment and accelerate security operations professionals' work.

Security Copilot takes the form of a prompt bar through which security operation center analysts ask questions in natural language and receive practical responses.

Microsoft Security Copilot is billed as a tool for cutting through - among other things - the chaos of alerts and incidents popping up and demanding security operation center analysts' attention.

"A security team's capacity will always be limited by the team's size and the natural limits of human attention. Security Copilot boosts your defenders' skills with its ability to answer security-related questions - from the basic to the complex," explained Vasu Jakkal, corporate vice president of security, compliance, and identity management at Microsoft.

Microsoft doesn't hide the fact that Security Copilot doesn't always get everything right, but counts on users to identify the errors in answers and report them to the company to help them improve the tool.

Finally, Microsoft promises to protect the data users enter into Security Copilot, to refrain from monetizing it and from using it to train or enrich foundation AI models used by other customers.
