Agenda

17:45-18:15: Arrivals / Networking / Intros
18:15-19:00: Don't Let Your Agents Go Rogue: Governing AI with Agent 365 - Richa Pandit

AI agents are multiplying fast across Microsoft 365 and without the right controls, they can become a serious governance and security risk. In this demo-heavy session, we’ll skip the slides and go straight into Microsoft Agent 365, Microsoft’s centralized control plane for AI agents, generally available since May 2026.

Watch live as we walk through the Agent 365 admin centre dashboard, register and inventory agents across platforms, configure policy-based controls, and trigger runtime protection against real-world threats like shadow AI and prompt injection. We’ll also demonstrate how Agent 365 extends visibility beyond Microsoft - into AWS Bedrock and Google Cloud - giving you a truly unified view of your agent ecosystem.

You’ll walk away with a clear picture of what Agent 365 looks like in practice, what it can and can’t do today, and exactly how to start governing your agents with confidence from day one.
