Answer 1

Hi there sam

thanks for using QandA platform

Microsoft does not have access to your data. You control who can access the data by setting permissions and using features like RBAC. For security, you can manage your own encryption keys and monitor access with Azure's logging and auditing tools. In short, your data is secure, and Microsoft only accesses it under strict, controlled conditions.

Kindly accept the answer if it helps thanks.

Answer 2

Your data stored in Blob storage is not shared with Microsoft for any purpose other than providing the storage service.

Your data is encrypted both at rest and in transit, using industry-standard encryption protocols. If someone intercepts your data while it's being transferred, they won't be able to access it without the proper encryption keys.

See: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/common/storage-service-encryption

So, data access is controlled by your configured authentication and authorization rules

You can specify a customer-managed key to use for encrypting and decrypting data in Blob Storage and in Azure Files.

See: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/common/customer-managed-keys-overview

Hi @sam

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A, thanks for posting your query.

Azure Blob Storage is a secure and reliable way to store your files, including those for your chatbot. Microsoft takes security and privacy very seriously and has implemented a number of measures to ensure safety and provides security for your data.

Azure Blob Storage provides encryption for your data, which means that your data is encrypted while it is stored in Azure. Additionally, Azure Blob Storage supports encryption in transit, which means that your data is encrypted while it is being transferred to and from Azure.

Azure Blob Storage provides a number of security features that allow you to control access to your data.  You can use Shared Access Signatures (SAS) to grant time-limited access to your data to specific users or applications.

Microsoft has implemented a number of compliance certifications and standards for Azure Blob Storage, including ISO 27001, SOC 1 and SOC 2, and HIPAA. These certifications and standards ensure that Azure Blob Storage meets strict security and privacy requirements.

Azure Storage compliance offerings | Microsoft Learn

Microsoft has a strict privacy policy that governs how your data is collected, used, and shared. You can read more about Microsoft's privacy policy https://privacy.microsoft.com/en-us/privacystatement.

Azure Storage encryption is enabled for all storage accounts, including both Resource Manager and classic storage accounts. Azure Storage encryption cannot be disabled. Because your data is secured by default, you don't need to modify your code or applications to take advantage of Azure Storage encryption.

Every block blob, append blob, or page blob in Azure Storage is encrypted with Azure Storage encryption.
