Microsoft Security Copilot
A generative-AI assistant built for security teams
Microsoft Security Copilot is a specialised assistant purpose-built for IT and security professionals — not general office productivity. It plugs into the Microsoft security stack to summarise alerts, investigate incidents, hunt for threats and accelerate response, letting a lean team work with the leverage of a much larger one.
What it connects to
Security Copilot integrates with Microsoft Defender XDR, Microsoft Entra ID, Microsoft Sentinel, Microsoft Purview and Intune. Ask it in plain English to explain an alert, map an attack path, or draft an incident summary, and it reasons across your security signals in real time — turning hours of analyst work into minutes.
What it does day to day
Summarise and triage security alerts; guide and document incident response; run natural-language threat hunts; assess identity risk in Entra; and produce clear, board-ready incident write-ups. It’s the difference between drowning in signals and acting on them.
How it’s licensed
Security Copilot is consumption-based, billed through Security Compute Units (SCUs) provisioned by the hour, so capacity scales up during an incident and back down afterwards. There’s no per-user licence to over-buy. As your CSP and security partner, Foresight sizes, provisions and manages the SCUs for you and folds it into your fixed monthly arrangement.
Who it’s for
Organisations already using Microsoft Defender and Entra, lean IT teams that want senior-analyst leverage, and any business serious about faster, better-evidenced incident response. Foresight is Cyber Essentials Plus certified and runs Microsoft Defender, Entra and monitoring for organisations across Greater Manchester and the UK every day.
