The Ultimate Power BI &

Governance, Auditing and Disaster Recovery for Power BI and Microsoft Fabric

Power BI Sentinel’s Origin

Over 30 million people use Microsoft Power BI. Power BI Sentinel was created to address a critical gap in data governance and transparency within Power BI.

Founded by a highly respected Microsoft Partner specialising in data analytics, we saw firsthand the limitations in native governance tools. We recognised that Microsoft was unlikely to solve this issue, so we took the initiative.

Years of innovation and expertise have since led to the development of Power BI Sentinel, the world’s leading (and only) comprehensive data governance solution for Power BI and Microsoft Fabric.

How does Power BI Sentinel monitor your estate? It analyses the following:

Confidentiality

  • Are your permissions aligned with the principle of least privilege?
  • Are you auditing who has accessed data, and when?
  • How many administrators have access?
  • Is row-level security implemented?
  • What risky activities are being performed, such as exporting or sharing data?

Integrity

  • Is your data current and reliable?
  • Is the correct data being used for reports?
  • Are users accessing the appropriate information?
  • Are calculations and KPIs consistent across all reports?
  • Do you have outdated, unused reports that are not being maintained?

Availability

  • Do you have a disaster recovery process in place?
  • What is the risk of reports failing to refresh?
  • Do the right individuals have access to your reports?
  • Are there any single points of failure in your reporting system?
  • Are reports regularly backed up to ensure data integrity?

Power BI Sentinel helps you meet the foundational concepts of Confidentiality,
Integrity and Availability (CIA) of your data estate to evidence
ISO27001, HIPAA, DORA and SOC2.
