CITY, Calif., Nov. 15,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Qualys, Inc. (NASDAQ: QLYS), a
pioneer and leading provider of disruptive cloud-based IT,
security, and compliance solutions, today announced its
participation in the Microsoft Security Copilot Partner Private
Preview. Qualys was selected based on its proven experience with
Microsoft Security technologies, willingness to explore and provide
feedback on cutting-edge functionality, and close relationship with
Microsoft.
"AI is one of the defining technologies of our time and has the
potential to drive meaningful, step-change progress in
cybersecurity," said Ann Johnson,
corporate vice president, Microsoft Security Business Development.
"Security is a team sport, and we are pleased to work alongside our
Security Copilot partner ecosystem to deliver customers solutions
that enhance cyber defenses and make the promise of AI real."
Qualys is working with Microsoft product teams to help shape
Security Copilot product development in several ways, including
validation and refinement of new and upcoming scenarios, providing
feedback on product development and operations to be incorporated
into future product releases, and validation and feedback of APIs
to assist with Security Copilot extensibility.
"Recognizing Microsoft's commitment to enhancing global
cybersecurity, we're thrilled to collaborate with them as AI's
influence on the changing cybersecurity landscape is undeniable.
While attackers are harnessing AI's untapped potential, it's time
for the cyber risk defenders to get ahead," said Pinkesh Shah, chief product officer, Qualys.
"This is why we're working alongside Microsoft in this important
initiative of managing cyber risk proactively, not just reactively,
which aligns with our Enterprise TruRisk Platform, enabling
organizations to measure, communicate and eliminate their cyber
risk more effectively."

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.
