The expanded attack surface, coupled with the struggle to maintain visibility and control, underscores the need for rigorous cloud security strategies. [But security teams are understaffed](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/state-of-cloud-native-security). They're inundated with alerts requiring immediate attention. Unsustainable workloads contributing to employee burnout and turnover raise the likelihood of overlooking critical alerts. That's where AI-powered tools like Prisma Cloud make a difference. ## Announcing the General Availability of Prisma Cloud Copilot On May 7, Palo Alto Networks introduced a [new suite of security solutions powered by Precision AI™](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/company/press/2024/palo-alto-networks-launches-new-security-solutions-infused-with-precision-ai-to-defend-against-advanced-threats-and-safeguard-ai-adoption), offering a holistic approach to help organizations both overcome security challenges and navigate the AI era. Our launch included a [private preview of Prisma Cloud Copilot](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/prisma-cloud/copilot/), an advanced AI security assistant that simplifies governance, compliance and management across multicloud platforms. Prisma Cloud Copilot is an intelligent AI assistant that empowers security professionals with enhanced capabilities for threat detection, vulnerability management, compliance and risk mitigation in cloud environments. This powerful tool is rolling out to our users as of October 1. Early adopters are already seeing significant benefits. > Prisma Cloud Copilot's AI-driven threat detection and proactive security measures have revolutionized the way we manage our cloud environment. It's been instrumental in identifying potential vulnerabilities before they impact our operations. *---George Lewis, CISSP, CISM, CCISO, Director of Global Information Security* Let's look at a few use cases we think you'll find exciting. 1. Prioritizing Risks with Attack Paths --------------------------------------- Security teams are overwhelmed by an influx of alerts, making it difficult to prioritize risks. Manually sorting through alerts to determine the most critical vulnerabilities is slow and prone to errors, especially under time constraints. ### Streamlining Risk Prioritization with Prisma Cloud Copilot Prisma Cloud Copilot automatically identifies and prioritizes attack paths, helping teams focus on the most urgent threats. With clear, actionable steps provided by Copilot, misconfigurations and vulnerabilities are resolved quickly, reducing the window of opportunity for attackers. **Before** : Time-consuming manual sorting of alerts. **After**: Immediate identification and resolution of high-priority risks. ![Copilot provides visual insights into potential attack paths, helping teams focus on the most critical risks.](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/word-image-330109-1.png) Figure 1: Copilot provides visual insights into potential attack paths, helping teams focus on the most critical risks. 2. Finding and Fixing Vulnerabilities ------------------------------------- Without an AI assistant, vulnerability management can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. Teams manually collect and sift through data spread across multiple tools, making it difficult to gain a comprehensive view of security issues. ### Simplifying Vulnerability Management Prisma Cloud Copilot provides a unified view of vulnerabilities across all cloud environments. It scans for critical risks, flags the most urgent vulnerabilities, and offers detailed remediation steps, tracking the status of fixes in real time. Teams can now find and fix vulnerabilities faster, improving overall security posture. Through a visual dashboard, Copilot highlights which vulnerabilities to address first and monitors the remediation progress, making vulnerability management streamlined and efficient. **Before** : Fragmented, manual search for vulnerabilities. **After**: Unified vulnerability detection with automated guidance. ![Copilot consolidates vulnerability data into a single dashboard, allowing teams to view critical issues in near real-time.](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/word-image-330109-2.png) Figure 2: Copilot consolidates vulnerability data into a single dashboard, allowing teams to view critical issues in near real-time. 3. Building Complex Queries with Natural Language ------------------------------------------------- Manually creating queries requires expertise in query languages like RQL. Security teams spend hours writing and testing them to find the right data. It's tedious and error-prone. ### Transforming Query Building with Natural Language With Prisma Cloud Copilot, analysts ask questions in plain language. For example, instead of manually crafting a query to find exposed S3 buckets, you ask, "Which S3 buckets are publicly accessible?" and instantly get the data. Copilot translates your question into a precise query, eliminating the need for specialized knowledge. By processing vast datasets and identifying patterns in real time, Prisma Cloud Copilot generates insights from natural language questions, cutting hours of manual work down to seconds. **Before** : Hours spent writing and revising queries. **After**: Instant insights, no manual query-writing needed. ![Ask questions using natural language.](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/word-image-330109-3.png) Figure 3: Ask questions using natural language. 4. Accelerating Support Requests -------------------------------- Creating a support request manually involves gathering logs, configurations, and other essential details. It's time-consuming and something important often gets overlooked, leading to delays and frustration. ### Copilot Automates Support Requests Prisma Cloud Copilot automates the whole process. It bundles everything you need for a support request, ensuring all relevant information is included upfront. By reducing back-and-forth with support teams, cases get resolved faster and more efficiently. **Before** : Long, incomplete support cases and slower resolutions. **After**: Accurate, complete requests with quicker turnarounds. ![Copilot automates the collection of all relevant information, making support requests more comprehensive and faster to resolve.](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Submit-a-Support-Case-1.png) Figure 4: Copilot automates the collection of all relevant information, making support requests more comprehensive and faster to resolve. 5. Fast-Tracking Documentation Search ------------------------------------- Searching through endless documentation to find answers can be frustrating. It's often a slow process of manually navigating large databases and cross-referencing different sources, wasting valuable time. ### Instant Doc Searches Results With Prisma Cloud Copilot, finding relevant documentation is faster and easier. Copilot quickly searches through Prisma Cloud's extensive resources and provides direct answers, allowing security teams to continue their work without interruptions. In fact, the search process is 24x faster than manual documentation searches with Copilot. **Before** : Time wasted navigating through pages of documentation. **After**: Instant, accurate answers from search powered by Precision AI. ![Copilot significantly speeds up documentation searches, giving users direct access to the information they need in seconds.](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Get-product-knowledge-without-leaving-the-console-1.png) Figure 5: Copilot significantly speeds up documentation searches, giving users direct access to the information they need in seconds. ## Experience the Power of Precision AI in Cloud Security Prisma Cloud Copilot is now available to transform how you secure your cloud environments.
