Microsoft, Palantir partner to bring secure AI to defense agencies

Microsoft is working with Palantir to provide cloud-based AI and analytics services to the U.S. defense and intelligence community.

The pair will offer a suite of technologies that combines foundation models through Microsoft’s Azure OpenAI Service with Palantir’s AI-powered security analytics tools.

The jointly developed suite is designed to let defense firms run workloads in the cloud while ensuring data remains classified and secure.

“Bringing Palantir and Microsoft capabilities to our national security apparatus is a step change in how we can support the defense and intelligence communities,” said Shyam Sankar, Palantir’s chief technology officer.

Microsoft and Palantir have had a strategic partnership for some time, applying AI and data analytics to industries including energy and renewables, health care, life sciences and retail.

Now, they’re looking to cover defense and intelligence, a sector with which both hold extensive experience.
