Microsoft Security Bootcamp

In the evolving world of AI there is an increasing focus on privacy, compliance and data governance. To stay competitive, organisations are rushing to adopt AI in their business processes, which brings up concerns around data and its usage. In this session we will focus on what to pay attention to when you embark on an AI journey for your organisation, with a focus on:

• The opportunity of AI and the challenges it poses for data privacy.
• What to do to ensure your Data is protected
• Building a responsible AI model and how you can apply it.

Many organisations think about securing their infrastructure but forget about their most important asset: data. Knowing and securing your data is critical in any organisation. Join Sarah Young in this introductory session to explore the data security capabilities in the Microsoft cloud and learn how to discover and classify sensitive data, define your data-protection policies and data retention policies.

Customer stories showcase the power of technologies in real life. It highlights our unique differentiation, and illustrates the trust our customers place in us. Join Peter Gay, Head of Cyber Security at TransGrid, and Microsoft Sales Director Kate Yardley to discuss TransGrid's data security journey and compliance with the Critical Infrastructure bill.

As more industries adopt multicloud and hybrid cloud infrastructures, they face the exposure risks that come with any unprotected cloud environment. Unprotected cloud environments often face increased exposure to data loss, unauthorized access, lack of visibility across multiple cloud environments, and increased non-compliance. A single cyberattack can negatively affect your business and lead to customer mistrust, costly repairs, and loss of revenue. Join this session to learn about multicloud security best practices and our latest cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP) innovations to help secure your environment.

Cloud environment are dynamic - with resources constantly changing it makes it difficult to understand your security posture and identify gaps. That means continuous monitoring is critical.

As our work and lives become increasingly digital, cyberattacks are becoming more frequent and more sophisticated, affecting organisations of every size and in every industry. Protecting identities and access is critical. Join Vik Verma, Information Security Advisor at Microsoft, as he takes a comprehensive look at identity modernisation with Microsoft Entra. He’ll explore:

• Identity strategy and key priorities for maintaining strong identity posture
• Implementing governance and end-to-end lifecycle management
• The latest updates for the Microsoft Entra platform and a look at the road ahead

Modern world security strategies require large scale data collection and analysis enriched by AI, data science and threat intelligence to solve the SOC's hardest challenges. Join the Microsoft Sentinel team to learn how you can transform your security operations in a simplified and scalable manner optimised for your unique environment. See a live demonstration of Microsoft Sentinel's SOC optimisation capabilities, AI, Copilot and more to effectively investigate and respond to advanced threats.

As cyberthreats continue to grow exponentially, it’s never been more critical to rapidly detect, investigate, and respond to threats across your entire organisation. Join Yasser Ahmed, Senior Cybersecurity Architect at Microsoft, as he explores:

• Cloud workload protection using Microsoft Defender, including an exploration of the various features within the platform such as antimalware protection, network protection, application control, and file integrity monitoring.
• The capabilities of Microsoft Sentinel, which provides security information and event management (SIEM) and security orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR).
• How you can improve your security posture by integrating the two solutions.

Do you like the sound of architecture in weeks and deployments in minutes, not months?
Microsoft 365 E5 combines best-in-class productivity apps with advanced security, compliance, and analytical capabilities. And LAB3 Security Insight leverages automation to provide greater threat detection and response for distributed and autonomous XOps teams. The two combined create an alliance built on speed and security.

Join Ankul Bhardwaj, Security Principal Technologist at LAB3, to learn how you can:

• Get the most out of your E5 investment and realise value faster,
• Accelerate your Microsoft Sentinel deployment,
• Secure your Hybrid and Multi Cloud estate with end-to-end visibility and response.

Put your hand up if you're excited about the potential AI brings to your organisation but you're equally concerned about potential security risks associated with this next era of innovation. In this session we will discuss the Principles of Secure AI, or more specifically – how you can maximise the economic, productivity and innovation benefits brought on by the era of AI in a way that is secure. Where does your data go?, how are your prompts handled by design through our architecture and what measures need to be in place to strengthen your security posture to innovate securely. We will aim to answer all of these questions and more.

Informed by over 65 trillion daily security signals and observations from our security and threat intelligence experts, the fourth annual Microsoft Digital Defense Report presents data and insights about the current state of cybercrime, nation-state threats, cyber influence operations, IoT and OT security, supply chain security innovations, defending with AI, and more. In this webinar, Ian Hoyle, Microsoft Senior Security Technology Specialist, will walk us through the new 2023 report and provide some insights into what we’re seeing.
