AI tools are everywhere—Copilot, ChatGPT, DeepSeek, and more often adopted by employees without IT’s knowledge. Sensitive data may be flowing into external systems, responses may be unvalidated, and organizations lack visibility and governance.
This session tackles the real-world security and compliance challenges of AI adoption and shows practical ways to monitor, protect, and govern AI usage—culminating in how Microsoft 365 Business Premium helps SMBs secure their environment end-to-end.

Microsoft 365 Business Premium is much more than just email and collaboration. It is a comprehensive productivity, security, and compliance solution—yet most organizations use less than 25% of its security features. To bridge this gap, Techgyan, in collaboration with Microsoft, is hosting an exclusive webinar designed to help businesses unlock the full potential of Business Premium.
