Enterprise Governance for Power Platform & Dynamics 365 in Banking

The democratization of software development through the Power Platform and Dataverse has been a game-changer. However, in the banking sector, uncontrolled environments lead to shadow IT, security vulnerabilities, and compliance failures.

### Establishing a Center of Excellence (CoE) Deploying the Microsoft Power Platform CoE Starter Kit is the first step. For financial institutions, this must be augmented with: - **Environment Strategies:** Strict separation of Development, Test, UAT, and Production with automated CI/CD pipelines via GitHub Actions or Azure DevOps. - **Data Loss Prevention (DLP) Policies:** Grouping connectors into business and non-business data groups to prevent accidental data leaks.

### Conclusion Governance isn't about blocking innovation—it's about building a safe framework where financial innovation can scale securely.
