Microsoft Brings AI-Powered Vulnerability Remediation to Azure DevOps with Copilot Autofix
Summary

Microsoft launched a limited public preview of Copilot Autofix for GitHub Advanced Security on Azure DevOps, enabling AI-generated vulnerability remediation directly within Azure Repos. The feature uses CodeQL static analysis combined with GitHub Copilot's coding agent to automatically produce multi-file pull requests that fix security issues, reducing the gap between detection and remediation. Developers retain full control through existing review and approval workflows, as the AI-generated fixes are treated as suggestions requiring human validation.
