Recently, I provided an overview of Security Copilot.  In that post, I discussed the 50,000-foot view of Security for Copilot, its origins, and some of its use cases.  Security for Copilot encompasses a pretty large area of focus in the Microsoft environment.  And to be honest, it isn't limited to just Microsoft products.  Already, there are dozens of integrations with other tools, such as CrowdSec, Darktrace, CheckPhish, and more. 

A dodgy email containing a link that looks “legit” but is actually malicious remains one of the most dangerous, yet successful, tricks in a cyber criminal’s handbook. Now, an AI startup called Bolster that has built a novel approach to tackle that trick…

Bolster AI has introduced its CheckPhish plugin for Microsoft Security Copilot, enhancing phishing detection within the Microsoft ecosystem.

_Seamless integration allows users to scan links from directly within the Microsoft ecosystem for faster detection of phishing scams and fraud_ Bolster AI, a leader in external threat protection for companies, brands, and customers, today announced its popular URL and webpage scanner, CheckPhish is now available as a plugin for Microsoft Security Copilot. The CheckPhish plugin provides users with an easy way to run phishing and malware link checks from within the Microsoft ecosystem, simplifying security workflows and allowing security teams to quickly launch takedowns and remediation. “AI is critical for cybersecurity, empowering organizations to protect themselves at machine speed at a time when cyber-attacks are happening faster than ever before, and talent shortage is impacting defender teams. Microsoft is fortunate to have partners committed to harnessing the power of AI and bringing the best-in-class security protection to their customers.” – Vasu Jakkal, Corporate Vice President, Microsoft Security. **Introducing the CheckPhish plugin for Copilot ** Bolster’s new CheckPhish integration with Microsoft Copilot allows security teams to investigate phishing and malware threats using natural language prompts — without ever leaving their Microsoft environment. Users can ask simple questions like “Is this link safe?” and instantly receive comprehensive threat analysis powered by Bolster’s multi-source intelligence engine, which includes data from Microsoft Threat Intelligence, ReversingLabs, Shodan, and more. The integration streamlines threat detection and investigation workflows, making it faster and easier for teams to identify and respond to emerging attacks. “This integration marks a major step forward in how we protect brands and customers from AI-driven scams,” said Rod Schultz, CEO of Bolster. “With CheckPhish now embedded in Microsoft Copilot, we’re making threat detection as easy as asking a question — giving analysts the speed, scale, and intelligence they need to stay ahead of emerging attacks. It’s a powerful example of what happens when cybersecurity and fraud prevention converge — and we’re just getting started.” Security Copilot is the first AI-powered security product that enables security professionals to respond to threats quickly, process signals at machine speed, and assess risk exposure in minutes. It combines an advanced large language model (LLM) with a security-specific model that is informed by Microsoft’s unique global threat intelligence and more than 65 trillion daily signals.
