Microsoft Copilot for Security augments security teams by applying generative AI directly to security data and workflows. It helps analysts move faster by summarizing signals, correlating incidents, and translating natural language questions into actionable security insights—reducing time spent investigating and increasing confidence in decisions.

Core functionality

• Natural language security queries – ask questions like an analyst, not a query engine
• Incident & alert summarization – compress complex investigations into clear narratives
• Cross-tool correlation – reason across Defender, Sentinel, Entra, Intune, and more
• Guided investigations – step‑by‑step analysis with contextual prompts
• Threat intelligence synthesis – enrich incidents with internal and external context
• Response recommendations – suggested actions aligned to security workflows
• Explainability – see how conclusions were reached and what data was used
