On April 1, Microsoft will release artificial intelligence (AI)-based tools that help cybersecurity experts compile a summary of suspicious incidents and detect the intentions hidden by hackers.
Introduced by Microsoft about a year ago, Security for Copilot has been tested by the company’s enterprise customers. However, when the product is officially launched, Microsoft will charge for the functionality used, similar to Azure cloud services.
Because AI sometimes makes mistakes, which can have quite costly consequences in cybersecurity, Microsoft is paying special attention to this aspect. Security for Copilot will combine with OpenAI’s AI capabilities to avoid possible risks.
Security for Copilot can work with all Microsoft security software and security tools and provides special dashboards that summarize data and answer questions. It will summarize information about the hacker’s actions and predict what the hacker will do.
Microsoft Vice President of Security Marketing Andrew Conway said Security for Copilot will enable experienced cybersecurity professionals to take on more complex tasks and newcomers to quickly become familiar with and develop their skills. his abilities. Through testing results, the company found that Security for Copilot is 26% faster and 35% more accurate than newcomers to the cybersecurity field.
As someone who tested Security for Copilot, Oil giant BP Plc’s Vice President of Cyber Security Chip Calhoun said: “Criminals are getting faster, which means we need to be faster and more successful. This tool is exactly what we need. Currently, Security for Copilot is not perfect, but over time it will reach perfection.”
