Microsoft Security Copilot Is A New GPT-4 AI Assistant For Cybersecurity
The Verge, March 28th, 2023
Microsoft is gradually building AI copilots for everything. The latest one is for security professionals.
After announcing an AI-powered Copilot assistant for Office apps, Microsoft is now turning its attention to cybersecurity. Microsoft Security Copilot is a new assistant for cybersecurity professionals, designed to help defenders identify breaches and better understand the huge amounts of signals and data available to them daily.
Powered by OpenAI's GPT-4 generative AI and Microsoft's own security-specific model, Security Copilot looks like a simple prompt box like any other chatbot. You can ask 'what are all the security incidents in my enterprise?' and it will summarize them. But behind the scenes, it's making use of the 65 trillion daily signals Microsoft collects in its threat intelligence gathering and security-specific skills to let security professionals hunt down threats.
