Microsoft Secure is our first flagship event designed just for security professionals. On March 28, 2023, we will bring together security professionals from around the world to explore security information and event management (SIEM) and extended detection and response (XDR), threat intelligence, AI, data security, multicloud security, and more. In this one-day virtual event, you’ll be among the first to hear exciting product announcements from Microsoft leaders, gain insights into the state of security, and get interactive looks into Microsoft Security solutions with our product experts. Plus, there will be live Q&A in chat and Ask the Experts sessions where you can ask our team questions. Among our big announcements will be news on what an AI-powered future means for cybersecurity.

Browse our session catalog for all available sessions and keep reading this blog post for some of our highlighted keynotes, breakout sessions, and interactive product sessions.

Kick-off with product announcements and industry insights

Start your day with a keynote from Vasu Jakkal, Corporate Vice President (CVP), Security, Compliance, Identity, and Privacy, and Charlie Bell, Executive Vice President, Microsoft Security, featuring a major announcement on what an AI-powered future means for cybersecurity.

In this session, Bret Arsenault, CVP and Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), invites CISOs from industry-leading organizations to discuss how your security strategy can make or break the health of your business and what is driving executive decisions and investments for the future. To end the keynote, Vice Chair and President Brad Smith will join Vasu Jakkal to share insights on geopolitics, the threat landscape, corporate responsibility, and Microsoft’s investment in the international security community.
