Powe BI Security Whitepaper
gopowerbi - Yes, that is my understanding as well (your summary at the end). I think that's why Anonymous and I were so certain that the second highlighted statement had to be incorrect. If it was indeed as stated, then Anonymous and I have spent the last couple years fundamentally not understanding how Power BI works!
I also had doubt about this but I wanted to ask to get sure this is not true :robotindifferent: .
To sum up:
Power BI is based on Azure -> a company's data will do the ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) procedure (exeption it is a livequery), which means the dataset, reports and dashboards will be saved on Azure BLOB, while the metadata will be saved in an Azure SQL Server. -> everything is on the cloud but it is encrypted (or atleast it should be since Q3 2016). right?
