Get Secure and Stay Secure in the world of agentic AI
Modern development moves fast. We need to secure while maintaining code quality at the speed of agentic AI. Security teams are overwhelmed with alerts. But not all risks are equal. GitHub Advanced Security and Microsoft Defender for Cloud make DevSecOps seamless by connecting code to runtime context and unifying developer and security admin tools.
Learn how to prioritize what’s actually exploitable in production, reduce alert fatigue, and accelerate remediation with AI-powered fixes with agentic workflows.

Model Mondays - Hands-on with Black Forest Labs + Microsoft Foundry Observabilit
·OnlineOnlinePARTNER SPOTLIGHT - Speed, Scale, and Control with Black Forest Labs Image Models in Microsoft Foundry
Stephen Batifol, Developer Advocate at Black Forest Labs, joins Model Mondays to show how teams use BFL’s generative image models on Microsoft Foundry to move from experimentation to real‑world creative workflows at scale with fewer touch‑ups, stronger brand fidelity, and state‑of‑the‑art image quality. This hands‑on session features a live demo and practical patterns for building scalable image pipelines, so you can ship complete creative campaigns in days, not weeks.TECH SPOTLIGHT - Observability in Microsoft Foundry
Building trustworthy AI agents requires an end-to-end observability capability that lets us trace, monitor, and evaluate, agentic task execution at enterprise scale. Join us as we talk to Sebastian Kohlmeier (Principal PM, Core AI @Microsoft) about Observability capabilities in Microsoft Foundry - from tracing to evaluations, monitoring and more.----------------------------------------------
