However, the spring of 2021 brought a harsh realization: even the most prestigious institutions are not immune to cyber threats. A severe security breach underscored the urgent need for robust defenses to protect critical research and personal data.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-a89b3969 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=zKBCrXyp8ec\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Watch the YouTube video<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"isPasted\">The incident exposed vulnerabilities that could no longer be ignored. \u201cIt was a wakeup call for all of us here at Oregon State University to make some changes,\u201d says David McMorries, Chief Information Security Officer. \u201cSo much of the institution&#8217;s business now is dependent on information technology that you must provide an environment that is functional, is available, and is useful.\u201d It was clear the institution needed to explore tools that could provide zero trust capabilities on all staff, faculty, and student devices\u2014ensuring protections on resources on site and in the cloud. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In response to this incident, OSU meticulously evaluated the latest <a title=\"cybersecurity solutions\" href=\"https:\/\/find.codeghost.online\/en-us\/education\/cybersecurity-solutions-for-schools\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-label=\"Learn more about cybersecurity solutions.\">cybersecurity solutions<\/a> available, deciding on Microsoft Security tools including: &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\"><a title=\"Microsoft Sentinel\" href=\"https:\/\/find.codeghost.online\/en-us\/security\/business\/siem-and-xdr\/microsoft-sentinel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-label=\"Learn more about Microsoft Sentinel.\">Microsoft Sentinel<\/a>: Proactive threat detection, response, and threat hunting across the digital estate.

This delicate balance requires a cybersecurity approach that is both robust and responsive. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Partnering with Microsoft, OSU was able to widely implement tools such as Microsoft Sentinel and Microsoft Defender quite rapidly. These tools enabled the university to detect and respond to incidents rapidly, reducing response times from weeks to mere minutes. It redefined their approach, shifting from a time-consuming and reactive strategy to a more efficient and proactive one. &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe types of threats that are occurring in higher education are much more aggressive by cyber adversaries,\u201d says Chief Information Security Officer David McMorries. \u201cSince we&#8217;ve made this improvement by going to Microsoft Sentinel and deploying Microsoft Defender, we&#8217;ve seen a dramatic ability to detect these sorts of events and prevent many of them before they influence our institution. So, the investment that&#8217;s been made in our tooling and in our people has really paid off.\u201d &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"protection-at-machine-speed-with-microsoft-copilot-for-security\">Protection at machine speed with Microsoft Copilot for Security<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Microsoft Copilot for Security is the only generative AI solution that helps security and IT professionals amplify their skillset, collaborate more, see more, and respond faster. It is available both as an immersive standalone portal and natively embedded within the existing and familiar Microsoft Security products in Microsoft 365 A5, such as Defender for Endpoint, Sentinel, and others. &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a recent research study conducted by Microsoft\u2019s Office of the Chief Economist, experienced security analysts using Copilot were 22% faster at the common security tasks they were given, and they achieved these time savings while also increasing accuracy by 7%. However, perhaps more compelling, 97% of the experienced security analysts said they wanted to use Copilot again next time. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These gains in speed, accuracy, and sentiment mean that security and IT teams have the power to radically improve not only their work, but also their sense of job satisfaction as they find the time to work on the most critical tasks, vs. being bogged down in the more mundane part of their roles.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"686\" src=\"https:\/\/find.codeghost.online\/en-us\/education\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/01-Microsoft-Copilot-for-Security-more-accurate1-1024x686.jpg\" alt=\"Graphic depicting the following results: Security professionals using Copilot were 22% faster, 7% more accurate, and 97% reported they want to use Copilot again for the same task.\" class=\"wp-image-4984\" srcset=\"https:\/\/find.codeghost.online\/en-us\/education\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/01-Microsoft-Copilot-for-Security-more-accurate1-1024x686.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/find.codeghost.online\/en-us\/education\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/01-Microsoft-Copilot-for-Security-more-accurate1-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/find.codeghost.online\/en-us\/education\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/01-Microsoft-Copilot-for-Security-more-accurate1-768x514.jpg 768w, https:\/\/find.codeghost.online\/en-us\/education\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/01-Microsoft-Copilot-for-Security-more-accurate1.jpg 1084w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>In a recent study conducted by Microsoft\u2019s Office of the Chief Economist, experienced security analysts using Copilot were 22% faster at the common security tasks they were given.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"isPasted\">These gains in speed, accuracy, and sentiment mean that security and IT teams have the power to radically improve not only their work, but also their sense of job satisfaction as they find the time to work on the most critical tasks, vs. being bogged down in the more mundane part of their roles.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">View the full <a title=\"research study for Copilot for Security\" href=\"https:\/\/go.microsoft.com\/fwlink\/?linkid=2262764&amp;clcid=0x409&amp;culture=en-us&amp;country=us\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-label=\"Follow this link to go to the study.\">research study for Copilot for Security<\/a> and download the <a title=\"Copilot Speed, Accuracy, and Sentiment infographic\" href=\"https:\/\/go.microsoft.com\/fwlink\/?linkid=2262587\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-label=\"Go to the graphic.\">Copilot Speed, Accuracy, and Sentiment infographic<\/a> for more results from the study. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Copilot represents the next level in OSU&#8217;s cybersecurity evolution. With Copilot, OSU can enhance existing security frameworks, allowing for more efficient threat detection and system management. Emily Longman, manager of OSU\u2019s Security Operations Center (SOC), expressed her optimism about the potential of Copilot, saying, \u201cOur research is a huge priority for the university, but sometimes it can be difficult to secure, and getting vulnerability management can be difficult. But with Copilot, we can find better solutions that are more secure for those researchers and really push the limits of human knowledge and research at OSU.\u201d &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through their Copilot pilot program, OSU is exploring the tool&#8217;s ability to complement and enhance other Microsoft security tools. By integrating Copilot with tools such as Microsoft Sentinel, they anticipate a significant shift towards automation, reducing the time analysts spend on routine incidents. This shift promises to refocus efforts on critical threats, enhancing their ability to quickly respond to and resolve security incidents. &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>We are excited to announce the general availability of Microsoft Copilot for Security on April 1, 2024.&nbsp;<\/strong>To learn more about Copilot for Security features and availability, visit the <a title=\"Copilot for Security\" href=\"https:\/\/aka.ms\/CopilotForSecurity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-label=\"Follow this link to learn more about Copilot for Security.\">Copilot for Security<\/a> webpage or read the blog, <a title=\"https:\/\/aka.ms\/CopilotForSecurityGADetails\" href=\"https:\/\/aka.ms\/CopilotForSecurityGADetails\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-label=\"Click here to go to the blog.\">Microsoft Copilot for Security: General availability details<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"preparing-students-for-an-ai-driven-future\">Preparing students for an AI-driven future<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The adoption of advanced AI tools like Copilot not only bolsters OSU\u2019s cybersecurity framework but also provides invaluable learning opportunities for students.
