(Livestream Replay) Governing Sensitive Data Using Microsoft Purview - with Anton Fritz

ABSTRACT 📄

In today's fast-paced world, organizations face numerous data protection regulations, such as GDPR, HIPAA, and CCPA, that require them to securely store and share sensitive data. As Power BI increasingly becomes the primary platform for sensitive business data in many organizations, there is a growing need for centralized governance tools that can help organizations identify where sensitive data is stored, classify and label it in accordance with their data protection policies, and protect it as it moves between systems.

In this talk, we will explore the various governance capabilities available for Power BI with Microsoft Purview solutions, including auditing user activities, enabling data owners to label sensitive content with Information Protection sensitivity labels (the same labels used in the Office product family), helping users to be aware of the sensitivity of the reports they consume, and automatically classifying and protecting data as it moves across Synapse, SQL, Power BI, and Office. Additionally, we will discuss how these solutions can help organizations discover and understand their data through the use of data Catalog and data Map

(Livestream Replay) Where to Find Data for your Power BI Practice? - with Roland Szirmai

ABSTRACT 📄

While it’s easy to download the official Advetureworks database from Microsoft to sharpen your Power Query / DAX / Dataviz skills in Power BI, it’s not always the most interesting data. If you truly want to immerse yourself in learning about how to transform less structured data, create measures that reflect more than just YTD Sales or practice how to best place your visuals on the canvas I reckon the most useful data is something that interests you!

In this livestream Roland and I will talk about 3 different examples where data can be found and if needed “created”.

Starting from a more structured, government issued dataset about road accidents in Australia. Then looking at a visitor information based on a shopping center data and visualizing busy areas and periods. And lastly, exploring resident information in a block of building, a dataset that anyone can easily replicate – even without any SQL skills.

Roland will also showcase that in our modern life we can find data everywhere and that could be used in our Power BI learning journey or to showcase some of your skills online or prep for a job interview.
