Solving Alert Fatigue with AI-Driven Task Prioritization Inside of Security Copilot
One of the most pressing challenges in cybersecurity today is alert fatigue. Security teams are inundated with an overwhelming number of non-prioritized alerts, forcing them into a reactive mode that drains efficiency and increases risk exposure. There are countless products that attempt to reduce alerts, but nothing like Fletch.
Fletch solves this problem by transforming alerts into a prioritized list of critical tasks, directly in Microsoft Security Copilot. Each task is correlated to and mitigates multiple alerts and threats that are often targeting several resources. It’s the morning report cybersecurity professionals have dreamed of, saving them countless hours.
How It Works
The Task Optimizer Agent by Fletch works seamlessly with Microsoft Security Copilot to refine security workflows. It:
Monitors global threat intelligence trends for cybersecurity threats, to find active, critical threats.
Correlates external threat intelligence with an organization’s specific security posture and data—automating and optimizing the kind of work traditionally done in SIEMs.
Ingests alerts from Microsoft Defender and other security alerting platforms and correlates them to our trending agent/data.
Generates a daily prioritized task list that eliminates redundancies and maximizes efficiency.
A More Efficient, Agentic Security Approach
With Fletch, cybersecurity professionals no longer need to manually sift through hundreds—or even thousands—of individual alerts. Instead, they receive a curated list of actionable tasks that refine their workflows.
These tasks consolidate multiple alerts with the same solutions, so that a single patching task resolves numerous threats all at once.
An example of a task report that mitigates 38 threats and 4 CVEs, generated by Task Optimizer Agent in Microsoft Security Copilot.
Additionally, Fletch autonomously identifies and processes non-human-required actions. For instance, if there are 30 endpoint resources requiring updates, a security analyst doesn't need to manually intervene.
Prioritized Tasks for Your Organization
Many security professionals struggle to get their day started. The problem isn’t just having too many alerts; it’s not knowing what alerts matter, what to ask, or how to ask it.
Task Optimizer Agent eliminates this "cold start problem" by giving security teams a list of prioritized tasks that are immediately actionable.
Stay ahead with continuous optimization
As cybersecurity threats evolve, Fletch dynamically updates tasks in real-time, ensuring teams stay ahead of emerging risks. This intelligent automation empowers organizations to enhance their security posture while reducing operational overhead.
If you update the technology in your stack, adjust your EDR and alert scanning tools, or shift your priorities in Fletch, your outputs in Security Copilot reflect these changes so that you never lose sight of the tasks that need to be done.
