Security Copilot

A security copilot is an AI-powered security solution that helps security teams protect their organizations from cyber threats at machine speed and scale. It works by using a large language model that can understand natural language queries and generate security-specific responses. It also leverages the company's security expertise and global threat intelligence to provide tailored insights and recommendations.

The security copilot can help security teams with various tasks, such as:

  • Writing complex queries based on natural language questions.

  • Summarizing security incidents and providing actionable guidance.

  • Creating effective and efficient test cases for different scenarios and datasets.

  • Analyzing signals and data from multiple sources and identifying potential gaps or errors.

  • Optimizing the system requirements and design alternatives for autonomous vehicles.

  • Accessing and integrating companies finished threat intelligence.

An example of such a security copilot is Microsoft's Security Copilot. Security Copilot is an AI assistant for security teams that builds on the latest large language models and harnesses Microsoft security expertise and global threat intelligence to help security teams. Microsoft receives over 65 trillion signals a day. Security Copilot is already helping preview customers save up to 40 percent of their time on core security operations tasks with capabilities such as writing complex queries based only on natural language questions and summarizing security incidents.

A security copilot experience is embedded within Microsoft 365 Defender, an industry-leading extended detection and response (XDR) platform, to provide a unified and seamless experience for security analysts. The copilot also includes Microsoft Defender Threat Intelligence at no cost, which enables customers to directly access and operate on Microsoft's threat intelligence.

A security copilot is designed to be a trusted and responsible AI solution that protects the data and privacy of customers. It does not use the data provided by customers to train other AI models, and it follows the industry-leading compliance and security controls.
