Security Copilot overage SCUs – General Availability
Security Copilot operates on a provisioned and overage capacity. Provisioned capacity is billed by the hour while the overage capacity is billed on usage.
You can flexibly provision Security Compute Units (SCUs) to accommodate regular workloads and adjust them anytime without long-term commitments.
To manage unexpected demand spikes, you can set an overage amount to ensure that additional SCUs are available when initially provisioned units are depleted during unexpected workload spikes. Overage units are billed on-demand and can be set as unlimited or a maximum amount.
This approach enables predictable billing while providing the flexibility to handle both regular and unexpected usage.
