Microsoft is developing AI security agents. These agents will help corporate security teams manage threats better. In April, the Microsoft Security Copilot program will preview six AI agents from Microsoft and five from its partners. These AI agents help make security operations easier. They cut down on workload and adjust to how users work based on their feedback.
Microsoft’s AI agents will integrate with its security tools, offering specialized support. Key innovations are the Phishing Triage Agent in Microsoft Defender and the Vulnerability Remediation Agent in Microsoft Intune. The Phishing Triage Agent helps prioritize phishing threats. The Vulnerability Remediation Agent finds and fixes system vulnerabilities. Additionally, the Threat Intelligence Briefing Agent in Security Copilot provides real-time threat insights.
Third-party AI agents boost security. OneTrust’s Privacy Breach Response Agent and Tanium’s Alert Triage Agent assist with compliance and managing risk.
