This document discusses managing workspace sprawl in Microsoft Teams and SharePoint sites. It begins by outlining problems with unmanaged sprawl, such as ineffective naming, unclear purpose or focus, missing owners, and redundant or inconsistent workspaces. This leads to issues like decreased user confidence, increased costs and workload, and data loss risks. The document then proposes solutions like managed provisioning through metadata collection during workspace creation, use of templates informed by metadata, and centralized request forms to improve governance and navigation. It highlights options for implementing this approach using tools like Power Apps, Power Automate, and SharePoint frameworks. Finally, it discusses enhancing directory experiences and provisioning processes.

Steps to Pro-active Governance & Adoption in Microsoft 365Richard Harbridge
Organizations are looking to Microsoft 365 to transform and optimize how they work. When organizations are only reactive with governance and adoption efforts, they will continue to fall behind and spend all their time firefighting, supporting, and struggling to manage and get the most out of their Microsoft 365 investments. Proactive governance leads to greater stability, better resiliency, and much greater effectiveness. When paired with proactive adoption, you achieve far more with less. So why don’t organizations all embrace proactive governance and adoption? Why aren’t all organizations proactively tackling Microsoft Teams lifecycle management or how to best drive more significant teams' usage before and after meetings? Because it can be a daunting challenge, especially without help or a proven path forward.
Join Richard Harbridge, a Microsoft MVP and internationally recognized expert on Microsoft 365 and the Digital Workplace, as he shares the best ways to accelerate and shift Microsoft 365 governance from being reactive to being proactive. We will explore how proactive adoption aligns and compliments this proven approach and how it and the effectiveness driven by good governance help organizations maximize the value of their digital workplace and Microsoft 365 investments.

Metaverse & The Employee Experience: What You Need To KnowRichard Harbridge
Back in the day we would use 'who installed a browser' that wasn't the default as an 'indirect signal' that denoted a level of individual interest in improving their digital productivity or experience. Nowadays we are swimming in indirect signals - from who organizes the most meetings (named if you use Audit log etc) to dynamics around networking (Viva Insights) to who uses Teams Apps (another great indirect signal of expanding productivity/investing in digital experiences).
What still works best though is direct signals like comments, nominations, champion programs (yearly and NON MANAGER & NON IT focused) and more that help identify people and map them/amplify their visibility as potential super collaborators, those with high amounts of digital debt and those who would better benefit from greater digital fitness or digital experience investments.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

15. SOLUTION: OOTB CREATION EXPERIENCES?
While OOTB can work great for many smaller orgs (less than 100 users), most need more structure
to support governance, lifecycle management, and better search/navigation experiences.
What business unit,
department, product,
customer, partner etc
does this site relate to?

Post creation
application of a
template directed by
users or supported as
an extra step.
What if context and
metadata could inform and
apply the right template
from the start?
17. SOLUTION: OOTB CREATION EXPERIENCES?
The reality is that site templates (and site scripts) are powerful and should be used when
viable. The site template experience can’t be disabled and is always available.
Supports Many “Actions”
• Creating a new list or library (or modifying the default one created with the site)
• Creating site columns, content types, and configuring other list settings
• Set site branding properties like navigation layout, header layout and header
background
• Applying a theme
• Setting a site logo
• Adding links to quick launch or hub navigation
• Triggering a Power Automate flow
• Installing a deployed solution from the app catalog
• Setting regional settings for the site
• Adding principals (users and groups) to SharePoint roles
• Setting external sharing capability for the site
Power Automate Enables More (See PnP Provisioning Engine)
18. SOLUTION: METADATA DURING CREATION
Why is asking a few extra questions on provisioning so important? What value does this extra
metadata provide once we have it for reference?
Sample Metadata Questions:
• What is the purpose or business reason for
this workspace?
• What division does this relate to?
• What department does this relate to?
• What product does this relate to?
• What customer does this relate to?
• What project does this relate to?
• Will this workspace contain highly
confidential information?
• Who is the business sponsor for this
workspace?
• What should the visibility of this workspace
be? Should it be shown in the directory?

organization's need to tailor Teams
templating and enhance the Teams
request process. End users request
teams via a form that collects info
such as business justification, while
approvers can manage requests
and builds can be automated. This
includes the ability to reference
existing teams as templates during
the request process.

23. By messaging and following up with a user once they have created a space we can also get
more insight, this way we don’t block the creation, but have a process to manage after.
Note this is how Microsoft
works “OOTB” with it’s apply
site template functionality.
Upon creation of a new site, it
prompts if a template might
be applicable (post creation).
24. SOLUTION: OOTB CREATION EXPERIENCES?
Microsoft continues to update and improve capabilities here so be sure to review if there are better
ways to tackle this over time. A few recent examples below…
25. SOLUTION: REQUEST PROCESS!
It is important to have a process for new site and team creation and to automate the process so that you can
provide tailored, or templated experiences for users and better management/navigation.

26. SOLUTION: DIRECTORY EXPERIENCES!
What is shown below is a really simple mockup of a filtered OOTB site directory experience.
You can create many pages with different views/visuals and relevant links to resources (Team, Site, Yammer, etc.)
Our communities can be filtered or explored by hierarchies (site explorer), by focus area (topic map), by the ones you recently visited or have favorited (your sites, your
teams, your communities) or by filtering the columns below (just click the column header).

33. SOLUTION: IMPROVE MANAGEMENT!
By centralizing and governing the creation of ‘spaces’ (groups, teams, sites etc.) we can
improve how we manage the lifecycle of these spaces.
Can we reduce redundant
spaces? Can we improve how
they are managed?
On the more custom side you
might see prompts based on
finding similar existing spaces
(reducing redundant spaces),
or automatic lifecycle and
governance, that occurs
based on re-engaging
users/owners etc.
