Beyond Role Assignment: Rethinking Security & Governance in D365

Session Overview: In most D365 environments, access control scales, but governance doesn’t.
Most organizations rely on fragmented processes to manage roles, duties, and licenses which results in hidden access risks, SoD conflicts, and license inefficiencies that compound as the system scales.
This session examines how D365 security becomes increasingly difficult to manage as complexity grows, where manual governance breaks down, and how automation and centralized visibility change the equation. It also explores how to detect conflicts earlier, enforce role-based controls more effectively, and maintain audit readiness without increasing administrative burden.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify where role-based security becomes unmanageable as D365 complexity grows
- Understand how fragmented access and license management introduce risk and cost inefficiencies
- See how centralized governance improves visibility, compliance, and control at scale
