Anthropic and OpenAI have released models that can help cybersecurity practitioners with defense.<\/p>\n<p>So far in 2026, Microsoft shares have come down 19%. &#8220;Given that consensus view that open-source (Chinese and other) AI models are poised to take share from the frontier labs, investor sentiment about Microsoft&#8217;s high OpenAI exposure has swung back to being perceived as a risk,&#8221; Microsoft analysts led by Karl Keirstead wrote in a Sunday note to clients. Keirstead recommends buying the stock.<\/p>\n<div style=\"height:100%\" class=\"lazyload-placeholder\"><\/div>\n<p>This year the company has announced its own model that can generate code in the GitHub Copilot tool, and lately it&#8217;s been drawing on a first-party model in the Excel spreadsheet program. While Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has a partnership with OpenAI to maintain, but he&#8217;s also been allocating computing power to train models in house, with an eye toward spending efficiency.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;By combining specialized models and data with the right agents, tools, security context, and harness, we can advance the frontier of cost to outcome,&#8221; Nadella wrote in a Monday X post.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft hasn&#8217;t disclosed the scale of its cybersecurity business since 2023, when it said annual revenue exceeded $20 billion.<\/p>\n<p>In 2023, Microsoft introduced the Security Copilot assistant for cybersecurity practitioners that incorporated OpenAI&#8217;s GPT-4. The service now comes with Microsoft&#8217;s two most high-end productivity software bundles. Project Perception can suggest and implement code changes once given permission, and it can connect with non-Microsoft products.  <\/p>\n<p>Cybersecurity executives &#8220;look at this as maybe a way to lower the bar and be able to bring in more talent to actually staff the SOCs and and get more people to participate because right now it&#8217;s very limited in the industry,&#8221; Gallot told CNBC. Companies maintain security operating centers (SOCs) full of people who look out for threats to information-technology systems.<\/p>\n<p>Last week, OpenAI said its models exploited a vulnerability and attacked AI startup Hugging Face&#8217;s infrastructure during a test. Hugging Face used a model from Chinese lab Z.ai to conduct forensic analysis.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think it&#8217;s a great illustration of why you need to defend with AI against the bad guys who have AI, right?&#8221; Gallot said.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s plenty of room for Microsoft to improve the performance of the new model.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have a unique data set,&#8221; Suleyman said in an interview. &#8220;We&#8217;ve used way less than 1% of that data.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>WATCH:<\/strong> SandboxAQ CEO weighs in on security incidents involving OpenAI and Hugging Face<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"Placeholder-ArticleBody-Video-108338533\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"ArticleBody-MobileAdhesion\" class=\"MobileAdhesion-container\" data-module=\"mps-slot\"><\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In this article GOOGL AMZN Follow your favorite stocksCREATE FREE ACCOUNT Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella speaks at the Microsoft AI Tour at TikTok Entertainment Centre<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":384336,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/image.cnbcfm.com\/api\/v1\/image\/108340745-1785183915472-gettyimages-2272651611-gchanceo-2-4_mcfn9tsu.jpeg","fifu_image_alt":"Microsoft touts cost-saving AI model for cybersecurity","footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[18,710,158,2964],"class_list":["post-384335","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-inv-business","tag-ai","tag-microsoft","tag-model","tag-touts"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/prostartup.it\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/384335","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/prostartup.it\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/prostartup.it\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prostartup.it\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prostartup.it\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=384335"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/prostartup.it\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/384335\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prostartup.it\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/384336"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/prostartup.it\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=384335"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prostartup.it\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=384335"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prostartup.it\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=384335"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
