Microsoft Security Copilot Phishing Triage Agent (Defender)

What it does

The Phishing Triage Agent (Microsoft Learn says it is the same agent as the Security Alert Triage Agent in Microsoft Defender) autonomously triages user-reported phishing submissions. According to Microsoft Learn, it classifies each alert, resolves false positives, leaves true positives open for analysts, gives a natural-language rationale for its verdict and learns from analyst feedback. Its tools include email content analysis, file and URL detonation, screenshot analysis, threat intelligence and advanced hunting. Email and collaboration alerts are generally available. Identity and cloud alert types are in preview.
