A practical session on building agents in Microsoft Azure AI Foundry — how to configure, ground, and secure them, with Canadian data boundaries treated as a design constraint rather than an afterthought. We cover agentic design principles, the three control layers behind a credible Canada-first claim, and a governance baseline you can start this quarter.
Event Highlights:
- Seven agentic design principles for production-ready agents
- The Foundry toolbox — and whether you can actually govern each tool
- Three control layers behind a Canada-first claim
- Deployment types and the residency trade-off
- Which tools stay private — and which quietly go public
- Identity pitfalls that silently break production
- The four-layer safety stack: guardrails, evals, red teaming, runtime defence
- A governance baseline and evidence pack you can start this quarter
- Live demo
