Last April, Microsoft Security Copilot taxied down the runway and took flight to help passengers onboard to reach new destinations in cyber defense. BlueVoyant, as a Microsoft Security Copilot pre-launch design advisory council member, was a trusty flight attendant that helped Security Copilot safely take off. Today, as Security Copilot has reached its cruising altitude, Microsoft announced Security Copilot agents that help its passengers to further optimize Microsoft Security tools usage.

As organizations strengthen endpoint and cloud security, attackers are shifting their focus to often-overlooked network infrastructure like routers, switches, and firewalls. Legacy vulnerability management (VM) solutions struggle to keep pace, relying on slow, periodic scans that fail to provide real-time visibility into emerging threats.

Discover a charge on your credit card that you don’t recognize. It could be from a card cloning event.
