Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens Wu Yanzu in South China for the delivery of clues! CTOnews.com, March 29 (Xinhua)-- Microsoft has now turned its attention to network security after announcing an artificial intelligence-driven Copilot assistant for Office applications.

Microsoft has launched a new artificial intelligence assistant called Security Copilot, which is designed to help network security professionals. This assistant can help defenders identify network intrusions and better understand the huge amounts of signals and data collected every day.

The core technology of Security Copilot is OpenAI's GPT-4 generative artificial intelligence and Microsoft's own security special model. Security Copilot looks like a simple dialog box, just like other chatbots. You can ask, "what are the security incidents in my enterprise?" It will give you a summary. But behind the scenes, it uses the 65 trillion signals Microsoft collects every day, as well as security expertise, to enable security professionals to track threats.

Security Copilot is designed to assist, not replace, the work of security analysts, and includes a post-it board feature that allows colleagues to collaborate and share information. Security professionals can use Security Copilot to conduct incident investigations or quickly summarize incidents and help with reporting.

Security Copilot accepts natural language input, so security professionals can ask for a summary of a particular vulnerability, enter a file, URL, or code snippet for analysis, or obtain event and alert information from other security tools. All questions and answers are saved, so investigators can have complete audit records.

The results can be fixed and summarized into a shared workspace so that colleagues can conduct threat analysis and investigation together.

One of the most interesting aspects of Security Copilot is the prompt book function. It is essentially a set of steps or automation functions that can be packaged into a single easy-to-use button or prompt. For example, you can have a shared prompt to reverse engineer a script so that security researchers don't have to wait for someone on their team to perform this type of analysis. You can even use Security Copilot to create a PowerPoint slide that outlines events and attack vectors.

Like Bing, Microsoft clearly identifies the source of the results when security researchers ask for the latest vulnerability information. Microsoft uses information from vulnerability databases from the Bureau of Cyber Security and Infrastructure Security, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, and Microsoft's own threat intelligence database.

But that doesn't mean Microsoft's Security Copilot is always right. "We know that sometimes these models go wrong, so we provide the ability to make sure we have feedback," said Chang Kawaguchi, a security architect with Microsoft artificial intelligence, which is much more complex than likes or steps on Bing. "because it can be wrong in many ways," Kawaguchi explained. Microsoft will let users answer what went wrong in order to better understand any mistakes.

Although Microsoft's Security Copilot looks like a chat robot like Bing, the company limits it to security-related queries. You can't get the latest weather information here, nor can you ask him what his favorite color is.

According to CTOnews.com, Microsoft began offering new Security Copilot previews to "several customers" today, and the official date for the wider launch of the technology has not been announced.
