Use Cases and Deployment Scope

So we use it to react more quickly to security alerts and issues. Filter through unnecessary alerts, resolve security alerts or issues that come up much quicker. So it does most of the level one triage, and we can focus on level two and level three.

Pros

Save money, save time, increase security, and SOC operations. Those are the things that it does well.

Cons

Takes a little longer than some other AI tools to configure. And you need quite a bit of knowledge of the Microsoft Stack, which has its cons, but we're a Microsoft partner. But that's about it.

Return on Investment

Increased revenue
Increased efficiency
Reduced overhead

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I primarily use it to generate risk narratives that are clear enough for leadership but detailed enough for auditors. It nails that sweet spot well. A lot of my job circles around coordinating engineering and compliance teams, which means I have to do multiple scans now every now and again - and that's what the Microsoft Security Copilot is for.

Pros

It cuts down the back and forth chases with the security team
Grouping patterns and highlighting what matters the most to me

Cons

Once in a while it will be overconfident with inaccurate explanations
At the moment, its context window is quite limited

Return on Investment

It cut down the security clarification cycle from around 5 days to just a few hours
There has been a clear improvement in how quickly we detect and frame risks for leadership
