Fabric security: everything you need to know!

Learn how Microsoft Fabric makes sure your data is secure. Did you know for example that all data is encrypted by default? Or that you can configure MFA for all your users? Fabric offers many of these possibilities and more out of the box without most of us knowing! In this session you will learn everything to convince your security team

Understanding Zero Trust security

In this session we will look at what Zero Trust principles are. Zero Trust is the modern way to apply security. It assumes a breach, verifies every user, and enforces least privilege, giving users access only to the private applications and resources they need. It no longer secures the perimeter (the network boundaries) which doesn't scale in the modern world. We will see how it applies to your Microsoft services like Microsoft Fabric too.
