🗞️ AI Buzz

🚨 AI security isn’t just a “nice to have” anymore—it’s a must. With cyberattacks outpacing human capacity, AI is stepping up as both a security risk and a powerful defense tool.

Microsoft just announced major upgrades to its Security Copilot, introducing AI agents that can autonomously handle phishing attacks, data security, and identity management. Given that they detected over 30 billion phishing emails in 2024 alone, it’s clear security teams need all the help they can get.

The new AI-powered agents can triage phishing alerts, optimize access controls, remediate vulnerabilities, and even deliver real-time threat intelligence—all while letting human defenders focus on more complex risks. Plus, Microsoft is working on securing AI itself with new tools to prevent data leaks, strengthen compliance, and protect custom-built AI models across multiple cloud platforms.

Cybersecurity is evolving fast, and AI is both the challenge and the solution. Read the full piece to see how Microsoft is tackling the future of security.
