Session Abstract

Security isn't optional when scaling enterprise solutions on Power Platform—it's foundational. This session explores how Managed Identity and Virtual Network (VNet) integration transform authentication, data access control, and network security for production-ready architectures. Learn how to securely connect Power Platform services to Azure resources without storing secrets, enforce least-privilege access patterns, and eliminate public internet exposure through private endpoints. Through real-world implementation patterns and live demos drawn from enterprise D365 projects, we'll walk through best practices for securing Dataverse plugins, custom connectors, and Azure Function integrations. Walk away with actionable blueprints to lock down your Power Platform environment—no more secrets in environment variables, no more public endpoints.
