In this webinar, we are going to see how you can store documents in SharePoint Online and how we can secure those documents through its security features. To use the document management functionality, you need to enable the server-based SharePoint integration on a site collection in SharePoint Online. Note that installing the Dynamics 365 list component was previously used for earlier versions of SharePoint on-premises and is not required for SharePoint Online and later versions of SharePoint on-premises. ​

With defensive programming, the main idea is that if a function is passed bad data it won’t be hurt, even if the bad data is another function’s fault. More generally, it’s the recognition that programs will be modified later on and will have problems, and that a smart developer will write their code to account for this. In this session you’ll learn how to protect yourself from the cold, cruel world of invalid data, events that can “never” happen, and other developers’ mistakes.

So your organization has decided to take the plunge and invest in a cloud service provider (CSP): Microsoft Azure. Maybe this is voluntary or alternatively through mergers and acquisitions, but the fact remains the same: Azure is likely an extension to your organizations’ on-premises enterprise network. Whether your organization is configured for a hybrid (cloud/on-premises) or completely cloud-native architecture, there are extensive security considerations. Azure is a fast-moving train; the technologies, services and integrations are constantly changing. Cloud service adoption rates are increasing, and an understanding of the Azure services, architecture, and security is critical. We’ll discuss many of the core security features and considerations that are fundamental tenets of a secure Azure environment.  Additionally, we will touch on a business continuity strategy in the event federation fails or on-premises service is no longer available. It is an ambitious topic, but one that will help you better approach and prioritize your Azure hardening initiatives.                                                                                                                                

Role-based security and the concept of “Teams” are two of the powerful building blocks provided by D365 CE for a successful security design.

In this presentation, we will discuss how to modify out-of-box roles to create custom security roles tailored for your organization and how to utilize “Teams” for improved flexibility within your security hierarchy.The content of this session is geared toward an audience with beginner-level knowledge of the subject area.
