Major Update to the "Developing Better Prompts for Microsoft Security Copilot" Workshop

Don't miss out on this opportunity to enhance your skills and stay ahead in the rapidly evolving field of AI and security.

Mar 10, 2025

I am thrilled to announce a significant update to our "Developing Better Prompts for Microsoft Security Copilot" workshop. This update brings a wealth of new content and enhancements designed to provide you with the most comprehensive and practical knowledge on prompt engineering for security applications.

What's New?

Expanded Content on Generative AI: We've added more in-depth sections on what generative AI is and how it works. This includes detailed explanations of large language models (LLMs) and their applications in security.
Enhanced Focus on Responsible AI: Understanding the ethical implications of AI is crucial. Our updated workshop now includes a comprehensive overview of Microsoft's responsible AI framework, highlighting principles such as privacy, security, accountability, and fairness.
Practical Examples of Prompt Engineering: We've included more real-world examples of effective and ineffective prompts. These examples will help you understand how to craft precise and comprehensive prompts that lead to accurate and relevant AI outputs.
New Sections on Security Copilot: Learn about the first generative AI security product that empowers security and IT teams to protect at the speed and scale of AI. Discover how Security Copilot integrates with various sources to generate tailored insights and guidance.
Interactive Tools and Resources: The workshop now features interactive tools like the Tokenizer, which helps you understand how text is tokenized by language models. This tool is essential for optimizing your prompts and improving response latency and throughput.
Promptbooks for Specific Tasks: We've introduced promptbooks, a collection of prompts used for specific security-related tasks such as incident investigation, threat actor profiling, and vulnerability impact assessment. These promptbooks can be used as templates or modified to suit your needs.

Who is this for?

I am making the workshop collateral available for free for our customers and partners to deliver to their internal and external orgs.

Is it truly free?

Yes. All I ask is that you let me know if you use it and provide feedback on how to improve.

How will you benefit?

By attending this updated workshop, people will gain:

A deeper understanding of generative AI and its applications in security.
Practical skills in prompt engineering that can be applied to various AI systems.
Insights into Microsoft's responsible AI principles and how to implement them.
Knowledge of how to leverage Security Copilot to enhance your security operations.
Access to interactive tools and resources that will aid in your learning and application of prompt engineering.
