Session Abstract

Microsoft 365 quickly brings together collaborators across your agency and your partners. That built-in collaboration, however, creates new concerns around tracking who has access across your environment. Organizations must monitor how users interact with data within a Zero Trust Architecture. When viewed individually, core pillars of Zero Trust, such as network, data, and user, are bound in M365: How is our service secured? How do we protect sensitive data? Which users do we authenticate in our system? However, this approach misses the intersection across Zero Trusts pillars in the collaboration spaces themselves. In this session, Jay and Ben will whiteboard, live, the Microsoft Security Platform as it pertains to Zero Trust, giving you a strong foundation for how to build your Zero Trust strategy with Microsoft.

Note to event organizers

No slides, we will whiteboard this live using Microsoft Whiteboard. We will walk people through why Zero Trust is important and show them all the entry points in Microsoft security.
