Microsoft Security Copilot agents
Security teams are overwhelmed by alerts and rising threats. This video shows how AI-powered agents investigate issues, prioritise risks, and speed up response times. Watch it to see how security operations become faster and more efficient.
What are Microsoft Security Copilot agents?
Microsoft Security Copilot agents are AI-powered assistants designed to help security and IT teams manage the constant flow of alerts, threats, and AI-driven attacks.
Instead of replacing your analysts, these agents work alongside them to:
- Take on repetitive, high-volume tasks
- Surface relevant insights faster
- Help teams respond more consistently and efficiently
They’re built to fit into modern security operations, where teams are often stretched thin and need tools that can help them reimagine how they prioritize and handle daily security work.
How do Security Copilot agents fit into our existing tools and workflows?
Security Copilot agents are designed to plug into the tools you already use, rather than forcing you to rebuild your environment. They integrate with Microsoft Security products and selected partner solutions, so your team can work inside familiar consoles and processes.
You stay in control at all times. You can:
- Define and customize the tasks agents handle
- Adjust how they operate based on your policies
- Refine their performance over time using your team’s feedback
The goal is to help you rethink how work is distributed: agents handle routine, high-volume activities, while your analysts focus on higher-value investigations and strategic decisions.
How do Security Copilot agents handle security, transparency, and learning?
Security Copilot agents are built to operate within Microsoft’s Zero Trust framework, which means they assume no user, device, or service is trusted by default. Access and actions are governed by strict controls, helping reduce risk as the agents work across your environment.
From a transparency and learning perspective:
- The agents continuously learn from your team’s feedback and adapt to your specific workflows.
- Their behavior can be monitored and tuned, so you can see what they’re doing and why.
- You can refine prompts, tasks, and policies to align with your organization’s standards.
This combination of Zero Trust principles, visibility into agent actions, and ongoing learning is intended to help you reshape how AI supports your security operations without losing oversight or accountability.
