Microsoft Corporation is releasing a new AI-powered tool designed for cybersecurity. This can help companies and other users track hackers.
The Microsoft Copilot for Security is a subscription AI security service that will be launched next month. This new tool will write summaries of any suspected online breach, and it can answer queries in English.
Paid Subscription for Cybersecurity
As per SCMP, the tech firm headquartered in Redmond, Washington, announced its new AI Copilot tool last year. Since then, Microsoft has been testing it with its corporate customers.
Some groups that agreed to join the testing are BP, an oil and gas company, and the Dow Chemical Corporation. Microsoft’s vice president of security marketing, Andrew Conway, said the number of test users grew to hundreds as partners and customers willingly participated.
Now, as the AI-based security tool is set to be officially released, Microsoft revealed that clients will have to pay a fee for the use from now on. At any rate, it was mentioned that Copilot is part of the company’s ongoing effort to fill its key product lines with artificial intelligence (AI) tools from its partner, OpenAI. The company also aims to convince companies to buy subscriptions for the service.
Global Release Date
Microsoft confirmed it is rolling out its Copilot AI tool for security on April 1, the same day as April Fool’s Day. It will be available to all customers worldwide, so the technology is multilingual and can respond to eight languages. Its interface will feature 25 languages, so users from Asia, Europe, and North and South America will find Copilot easy to navigate.
“The industry’s first generative AI solution will help security and IT professionals catch what others miss, move faster, and strengthen team expertise,” Microsoft’s corporate vice president, security, compliance, identity, and management, Vasu Jakkal, said in an announcement. “Copilot is informed by large-scale data and threat intelligence, including more than 78 trillion security signals processed by Microsoft each day, and coupled with large language models to deliver tailored insights and guide next steps.”
