To Adopt or Not: Making an Informed Power Platform Decision and Establish a Solid Foundation

This presentation highlights two critical stages in adopting Power Platform, focusing on the decision-making process for its suitability for customers' requirements and best practices for initiating its use. It aims to guide customers and consultants toward making informed choices about adopting Power Platform, considering the potential financial risks of choosing the wrong platform or a flawed implementation strategy. This also includes advising against adopting the Power Platform if it's not a suitable option.

We want to emphasize the importance of evaluating Power Platform's fit based on business processes, industry, regulatory compliance and whether more custom alternatives on Azure might be more appropriate. This first evaluation is crucial to avoid costly mistakes and ensures that if the platform is chosen, it meets the specific needs of a customer right now and in the future.

Having observed many faulty implementations over the years, we want to provide guidance on why “a real-time application with financial information” might not be a good fit for Power Platform. We will highlight how to avoid such scenarios in the first place, before they are sold as a “good solution” to the client and potentially lead to negative outcomes.

The session also offers practical advice on starting with Power Platform, including proper environment setup, subscription management, application lifecycle management, governance, and app development strategies to ensure that every business function has a suitable application. We will discuss when to integrate features into one app versus developing separate applications, aiming for a future-proof setup that is easy to maintain while utilizing the full potential of low-code/no-code SAAS platforms like the Power Platform.

Attendees will gain insights into assessing Power Platform's relevance to their needs and how to start using it effectively, ensuring it is recommended and implemented correctly for those it suits. This session targets customers and client-facing experts/consultants interested in Power Platform.

Taming the NIS2 Beast: Securing Low-Code / No-Code in the Microsoft Power Platform

Are you sure your Power Platform environment/implementation is secure and NIS2 compliant?
Power Platform is innovating how businesses & Microsoft partners build applications, but with great agility great security risks can arise due to very easy misconfiguration and missing out of the box functionality. From mass data exfiltration via exports and APIs, to unmonitored Power Automate flows silently sending data outside your organization, to a lack of built-in incident detection and forensic tracking, compliance with NIS2 and other security regulations is a growing challenge. This is especially relevant in the European Union where the regulatory landscape is changing rapidly during 2025 and 2026.
So our goal is to make Power Platform more secure to maintain the fantastic momentum it has given us all in the sphere of app development and building endless fantastic apps in like no time.

In this session, we will:
- Break down some security gaps in Power Platform that might put your organization at risk.
- Demonstrate real-world threats, including unauthorized app modifications and data leaks.
- Show how to implement automated defenses using Defender for Cloud Apps, Sentinel, and Azure Logic Apps to track and block suspicious activity.
- Walk through a live demo of a Power Platform security breach and automated access revocation in action!

Who should attend?
• Power Platform Admins who want to strengthen governance.
• Business Owners and Managers who care about regulatory compliance of their IT landscape
• Security & Compliance Professionals navigating NIS2 and regulatory requirements.
• IT Decision-Makers looking for best practices in securing low-code/no-code
environments.

After our session, you will know what actionable steps to take to make Power Platform more secure, compliant, and resilient!
