Microsoft launched its AI-powered Security Copilot a year ago to bring a chatbot to the cybersecurity space, and now it’s expanding it with AI agents that are designed to autonomously assist overwhelmed security teams.

Designed for Microsoft's Security Copilot tool, the AI-powered agents will automate basic tasks, freeing IT and security staff to tackle more complex issues.

The new tools will help detect the most urgent risks faster, from phishing emails to potential insider threats.
