We are ready for a paradigm shift and taking a massive leap forward by combining Microsoft’s leading security technologies with the latest advancements in AI.
In the last few months, the world has witnessed a wave of innovation as organizations apply advanced AI to new technologies and use cases. Security professionals are scarce, and we must empower them to disrupt attackers’ traditional advantages and drive innovation for their organizations. The volume and velocity of attacks requires us to continually create new technologies that can tip the scales in favor of defenders. Compounding this challenge is a global shortage of skilled security professionals, leading to an estimated 3.4 million openings in the field. To protect their organizations, defenders must respond to threats that are often hidden among noise. Too often, they fight an asymmetric battle against prolific, relentless and sophisticated attackers. Today the odds remain stacked against cybersecurity professionals.
