Power Platform adoption moves fast. Access Kanwal Khipple’s Microsoft Community Days Montreal slide deck for practical strategies to govern Power Platform environments, DLP, security, and AI automation at scale.

Microsoft Power Platform Governance in 2026
Your organization didn't decide to build 300 Power Platform apps and agents. It just woke up one day and had them.
As makers move faster, environments multiply, connectors expand, and AI agents begin acting across organizational data, yesterday’s governance model can quickly become today’s operational risk.
This slide deck from Microsoft Community Days Montreal 2026, Power Platform Governance, explores how organizations can replace reactive controls with a scalable governance strategy for Power Apps, Power Automate, Copilot Studio, and Dataverse.
What You'll Learn
- An environment strategy that scales: how to structure dev, test, prod, and personal productivity environments so governance doesn't collapse the moment adoption grows.
- DLP policies that don't break the business: practical connector classification, and where most organizations over- or under-restrict.
- Security patterns for AI-era workloads: what changes when agents, not just apps, are consuming your data and triggering actions.
- Governance you can automate: using the Power Platform's own tooling to monitor, flag, and remediate at scale instead of chasing makers manually.
- A starting point you can use Monday: not a maturity model poster, an actual sequence of moves.
Built for the People Responsible for the Guardrails
