Microsoft Launches Free Cybersecurity Program for Europe
Microsoft is giving European countries a free tool to help keep their computers safe.
The program will use Artificial Intelligence (AI), which is like a super-smart helper, to find and stop cyberattacks.
These attacks are becoming more common and use AI to cause problems.
Microsoft wants to share its smart defense tools, originally made for the US, with Europe.
The main goal is to defend against dangerous attacks and to share helpful information so European governments can protect themselves.
This also covers how AI is helping spread fake videos and audio, and how Microsoft is helping to prevent this misuse.
Microsoft is offering a free cybersecurity program to European governments.
The program aims to combat increasing cyber threats, especially those powered by AI.
The initiative responds to a surge in cyberattacks across Europe, linked to state-sponsored actors.
