Teams Nation 2024 is completed and I would like to share my experience of this. Yesterday, Wednesday, February 22, Teams Nation 2024 took place. This was my fourth time and this year I and Daniel Sønstevold were “on stage” together.
We had a great and solid Moderator in the form of “The one and only” (and always helpful and nice) Peter Rising who guided us safely and kept us organized before, during, and at the end of our session. We even had time for a few good laughs right before we started. (A little chat and laughter is, in my opinion, the best calming preparation before going “on air”.)
Daniels and mine session was in the Security & Compliance track and we demonstrated and shared our knowledge and our experiences so far when it comes to what should be done to become Copilot Ready or Optimized for Copilot for Microsoft 365. We started by talking about the importance of having secured the Microsoft 365 platform itself and always thinking (and striving for) Zero Trust. Then we went on to talk about how you can (and should) clean up- and secure Microsoft Teams, SharePoint and OneDrive. Finally, we showed the possibilities and the importance of using Microsoft Purview in terms of establishing and being able to comply with rules and implementing and managing Information Protection.
Often, at other conferences, this type of presentation is a one-way communication where you present what you planned to present and when you’re done, it’s thank you and goodbye. Here at Teams Nation, it’s something completely different. During the time we presented, and after the presentation, we experienced an unusually dynamic dialogue with the participants. The meeting chat bubbled and filled up with relevant questions, good answers and friendly comments. Everyone shared questions as well as knowledge and experiences and all the time the tone was good, helpful and inclusive.

I am the person behind this blog, created to share experiences, insights, news, practical guidance, tips & tricks, constructive feedback, and reviews. While the blog covers most of Microsoft 365, a significant focus is on AI, Microsoft Copilot, security, and the governance frameworks required to use these technologies responsibly and effectively.
I am passionate about exploring, testing, and evaluating new applications, features, and solutions. However, I am equally passionate about understanding how to implement them securely and successfully. For me, technology is not only about innovation and productivity, but also about security, compliance, governance, and risk management. My goal is to help organizations and people maximize the value of Microsoft 365 and AI while ensuring that security, data protection, and responsible adoption remain at the center of every decision.
