Hero Links and Secure Sharing Webinar

File sharing is about to get a major upgrade, and after a decade in the making, it's almost ready for the world to experience! Sharing in Microsoft previously involved navigating a complex web of links and dealing with access uncertainties. But all of that is about to change.

The new Hero Link in SharePoint introduces a single, powerful link that governs all access—making sharing across Microsoft 365 faster, smarter, safer, and easier than ever. No more juggling multiple URLs or second-guessing permissions.

But here’s the big question: what about the thousands of old links still floating around? How do you clean up link chaos and enforce governance without slowing down productivity?

Join Stephen Rice, Principal Product Manager, OneDrive & SharePoint at Microsoft, and Peter Carson, President & CEO of Envision IT, for an engaging deep dive into the future of sharing and governance in Microsoft 365. You’ll walk away with practical, actionable strategies to secure your environment, simplify sharing, and ensure compliance—all at scale.
