Yeah, we’ve already been told by our MS engagement guy that Azure engineers access our data for quality assurance reasons. Without telling us about it and without altering the timestamps on our data and without triggering the alerts we’ve set whenever any of our people access the data.

I want out of MS and management has a fetish for them. Meh, I’m retiring soon enough so it’s not my problem.

How does Microsoft handle your data in the cloud?
Microsoft engineers do not have default access to cloud customer data. Instead, they are granted access, under management oversight, only when necessary.

Legally speaking, they can't read your data or send your data to law enforcement without a correct court order.

Internally Microsoft is very strict about protecting the data of users and customers, and unlike some other big well-known WEB outfits, Microsoft explicitly does NOT scan the contents of user's private files (eg your Hotmail.com Email, your VM's data files) to be used for marketing or advertising.

They do this not because they are particularly ethical - I'm not that naive to believe them, but they do this to differentiate themselves from AWS
