Build Enterprise-Grade Security & Compliance

The Security & Compliance track at Adriatics Tech Summit 2027 is your guide to building an enterprise-grade security posture at a moment when the ground has moved twice: attackers now use AI, and so do the systems you are defending. This track goes deep on Microsoft's security stack and on the European regulation that now sets the floor, for IT professionals, security architects and compliance officers.

A speaker demonstrates secure data management techniques, highlighting environment variables and connection settings for storing credentials. The presentation slide emphasizes proper credential handling and security principles in software solutions.

Add a new section at the bottom of the page. Same rules: this copy exactly, nothing added, nothing rewritten.

Practical Implementation

The track covers practical implementation of Conditional Access policies, multi-factor authentication strategies, and privileged identity management to ensure only the right people access the right resources at the right time.

Identity Now Includes Machines

Zero Trust was written for people and devices. Agents are neither. With Microsoft Entra Agent ID, an agent gets its own identity that can be discovered, governed and revoked, rather than borrowing a user's.

Securing AI Agents: The Problem That Did Not Before

Your organisation is deploying agents faster than it is governing them. They are built on Microsoft Foundry, on AWS Bedrock, on Google's platform, and they hold credentials, reach into data and take actions. Four in five organisations have already watched an agent do something it should not have.

Agent Sprawl

Security teams need to know which agents are running, what models they are built on and what they can reach. You cannot govern an inventory you do not have.

Identity for Agents

Microsoft Entra Agent ID gives each agent a first-class identity instead of acting on behalf of a user, so access can be scoped, audited and withdrawn.

The organisations that scale agentic AI in 2027 will be the ones that solved this first.

    Compliance Is No Longer Optional, or Postponable

    For European organisations the regulatory picture changed from advisory to enforceable in the space of two years. NIS2, DORA, the EU AI Act and the Cyber Resilience Act now overlap, and all four push accountability out of the IT function and into the boardroom — in NIS2's case with sanctions that reach individuals.

    Most Organisations Are Behind

    A 2025 survey of European institutions found only a quarter fully compliant with DORA's ICT risk-management pillar, with half expecting to arrive in 2026 or 2027. If that sounds like your organisation, this track is for you.
