Build. Govern. Defend. — The New Microsoft Security Challenge, Live in Lisbon

Two perspectives. One conversation. How organisations can innovate faster with Power Platform and AI without creating new risks they cannot control.

Build. Govern. Defend. The New Microsoft Security Challenge: FRCI and AvantIT conference in Lisbon on 23 October 2026

About this session

Technology is changing the way organisations work, and it is also changing the way they are attacked.

With Microsoft Power Platform, artificial intelligence and automation, more people across organisations can build applications, automate processes and work with data without relying exclusively on traditional development teams.

At the same time, cyber threats are becoming increasingly sophisticated. AI is transforming phishing, impersonation, Business Email Compromise and other forms of social engineering, making attacks harder to identify and prevent.

How can organisations innovate faster without creating new risks they cannot control?

On 23 October in Lisbon, FRCI and AvantIT come together for a morning focused on the new Microsoft security challenge, bringing together perspectives on cybersecurity, AI, Microsoft 365, Power Platform and governance.

FRCI: The Email Threat Has Changed. Has Your Defence?

Presented by Tej Beepat, Team Leader at FRCI. Tej explores how the email threat landscape is evolving, how AI is making attacks more convincing, and how organisations can use Microsoft Defender for Office 365 to build a more intelligent, multi-layered defence.

AvantIT: Your Company Has Hundreds of Developers. You Just Don’t Know It Yet.

Presented by Henrique Serafim, CTO at AvantIT. Henrique explores how Microsoft Power Platform, automation and AI are changing who builds technology inside organisations, and why governance, identity, data and security need to evolve alongside this new reality.

The Conversation: FRCI × AvantIT

We finish the morning with both companies back on stage for an open conversation with the audience. No formal presentations. No scripted panel. Just real questions, real challenges and an open discussion around AI, Microsoft 365, Power Platform, governance and cybersecurity.

Bring your questions. Challenge the speakers. Share your experience.

Build faster. Govern better. Defend smarter.

A morning of insights, practical perspectives and open discussion about how organisations can innovate while keeping security at the centre.
