Power Platform governance starts before the Admin Center

Diesen Beitrag auf Deutsch lesen

Effective governance begins with four business decisions about enablement, protection, accepted risk and unacceptable risk before technical configuration.

TL;DR

Power Platform governance should begin with four questions: what to enable, what to protect, where to accept risk and where not to accept it. Leadership and business stakeholders must define these decisions before admins create DLP policies or configure environments, because Microsoft defaults prioritize adoption rather than each organization’s sustainability or compliance needs.

Governance takeaway

  • Admins/CoE: Write down the four governance answers before creating DLP policies, then translate those decisions into configuration and defaults.
  • Leadership/Business: Decide what Power Platform should enable, protect, tolerate and restrict, because leaving these choices open leaves the tenant operating on Microsoft adoption-oriented defaults.
  • Makers: Treat low-code apps and automations as production systems that still require sustainable ownership, because an unmanaged app can become critical after its maker leaves.
