The GenAI assistant is designed to leverage large language models trained on telecommunications and mission-critical security data, including 5G network architecture and security practices. By combining this with Nokia’s expertise in the telecom domain, the assistant is anticipated to enhance the efficiency of Cybersecurity Dome’s threat identification and resolution capabilities.

With the frequency and sophistication of cyberattacks on the rise, the extended detection response (XDR) security market is expected to experience significant growth, potentially reaching $2.4B by 2027. Nokia’s integration of the GenAI assistant into its XDR platform could reduce the time needed to identify and resolve threats by up to 50 percent, depending on the attack’s nature. This improvement also suggests a decrease in false-positive results, leading to more effective cybersecurity incident management.

Several Nokia customers are slated to begin testing the GenAI assistant shortly. Fran Heeran, Senior Vice President and General Manager at Nokia, highlighted the benefits of combining Nokia’s telecom and security expertise with Microsoft’s AI solutions to provide agile mitigation against cybersecurity attacks.

Silvia Candiani, Vice President Telco and Media at Microsoft, expressed enthusiasm for the collaboration, emphasizing the efficiency gains that Azure cloud and AI capabilities bring to crucial security applications.

Nokia’s announcement reflects its commitment to providing secure and reliable networks, as well as pioneering technology for digital services and applications in the future. The information is based on a press release statement from Nokia.
