In the dark with Power Platform?

Practical steps to protect your assets

With its low cost and no-code setup, Power Platform empowers citizen developers across the organisation to use websites, chatbots, automations and apps to drive innovation and do more with less.

The Cloud Community team have been talking to our members, and the Power BI suite is empowering unprecedented autonomy and creativity from staff to drive the business forward.

According to our partners AvePoint, one of the greatest aspects of Power Platform is the autonomy it gives citizen developers to build low-code/no-code apps, automate processes, and gain valuable insights, all without burdening IT.

Putting the right guardrails in place

However, for many, all this power in the hands of end users doesn’t come without concerns, particularly around the security of your organisation’s data. So for IT, there’s a “but”. According to Gartner, organisations don’t know how to enforce and apply standard governance practices to protect data in Power Platform.

Because Power Platform’s solutions are often integrated with Microsoft 365 and other SaaS and on-premises business data sources, it’s understandable to fear a poorly built workflow or buggy app may expose or even damage important data. That’s where Microsoft’s data loss prevention policies come in.

This blog discusses data loss prevention strategies for Power Platform and offers practical steps to protect your assets.
