Power BI - Data Security

Hello Experts,

 

I need your help regarding the data security when we publish a report from pbi desktop to power bi server (powerbi.com).

Our client has a very secured data and we are using Azure government cloud for this client to maintain the data security. We are planning to create the power bi report on top of this data and publish the report and then client will login with pbi pro account to access this data.

 

Now the major concern is that when we will publish the report on powerbi.com service then the data will go out of the Azure government cloud and which is not acceptable for client. Some questions - 

 

Does power bi store the data on their servrers to render the report visuals? 

Is data secured on power bi service?

Even if data is secured or encrpted is there any way that we could not have data on powerbi service and use some sort which is very private?

 

Please also advise how should we have the reports published in secured way and which will not take data outside of Azure governement server. Your inputs are highly appreciated!

 

Thank you!

      Thanks LivioLanzo for your quick response. We have not created report using direct query but we have imported data and it would be really time consuming to re-create using direct query now. I guess when we import then data will go to power bi service but in encrypted format. 

      Is there any way that we could change imprted data to direct query easily rather than re-creating?

      Also is there any private cloud that we could publish insted of power bi service.

       

      Thank you and please advise.

       

      Thanks!
