Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Security Copilot

Microsoft Copilot for Security acts as a virtual cybersecurity assistant that helps us streamline threat detection, incident response, and compliance management. It seamlessly integrates with Microsoft Defender, Sentinel, and Intune, and Copilot leverages AI to interpret the majority of our security data and provide actionable insights through natural language prompts. Being that we are a small company, it makes it much easier for our SOC to respond to incidents and be proactive in their day to day operations.

Pros

  • Investigate incidents faster by summarizing alerts and correlating signals across systems
  • Respond to breaches with guided remediation steps.
  • Analyze user behavior to identify internal risks or compromised accounts.

Cons

  • It is super expensive, which can be a turn off for many small businesses looking to leverage its capabilities
  • It can be very complex to set up, with many prerequisite steps that need to happen prior to being able to use it
  • With all AI-based solutions, it can sometimes hallucinate, but that is to be expected at some level
  • It has helped to protect our infrastructure from MITRE ATT&CKS, provide information on the the latest CVE's, and other methods of compromise, allowing us to prepare in advance and remediate in real time.
  • The fact that it integrates so well with Microsoft Sentinel allows us to read and review alerts in real time, making it much easier for our SOC to respond
  • Its detailed reporting allows us to provide insight to our C-level management, and other decision makers, about how important of a product it is to our organization, and why it is worth the cost.
Although Microsoft Copilot for Security is fairly expensive, and can be quite involved to initially set up, once it is fully functional, it is a very powerful tool. The fact that it also integrates with other solutions in the Microsoft stack, including Microsoft Sentinel, Defender XDR, Intune, and Entra, gives you a single pane of glass into all of these products from a threat management perspective.

Do you think Microsoft Security Copilot delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Microsoft Security Copilot's feature set?

Yes

Did Microsoft Security Copilot live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Microsoft Security Copilot go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Microsoft Security Copilot again?

Yes

Security Copilot excels at summarizing alerts, identifying root causes, and guiding remediation steps, especially useful for small teams like ours, where resources are limited at the tech level. It also helps our IT admins assess vulnerabilities, prioritize patching, and improve overall security hygiene in our environment. It would be less appropriate in a situation where an IT department has little to no experience with AI tools, or are using 3rd party tools that don't integrate well, or at all, with Copilot for Security.
