How does Microsoft Azure ensure Secured Data Migration to the Cloud?
Many organizations, especially those dealing with sprawls of unstructured personal and sensitive data, have preconceived notions and fears about moving their data to the Cloud, in general. But, once they are a part of the Microsoft Trusted Cloud, organizations can rely on Azure for best-in-class security, reliability, compliance, privacy, and a vast ecosystem of trusted people, partners, and processes to support their customers moving to the Cloud.
Microsoft Azure is the only cloud provider that offers a secure and consistent platform for companies to work with the Cloud without requiring high-level skill sets to handle the cloud complexities. Microsoft Azure provides various integrated data services and analytics tools to unlock the intelligence hidden in the data. They provide open frameworks and tools with a choice for integrating Azure cloud services with any infrastructure, cloud, or on-premises.

Hey AashimaSharma
This is a bit of a read but check out the link https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/compliance/assurance/assurance-datacenter-security
Microsoft has the shared responsibility model as well https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/security/fundamentals/shared-responsibility
But to sum it all up, Microsoft will ensure that the datacenters, environment and physical security are secure. But the data is the customer responsibility within Azure, so if you upload data or configure something within Azure and you misconfigure or open up a service within azure to the world and your data is taken, that's on you.
Microsoft will provide assistance around this and give you generally good support on how to configure and use there services with there best practice. I've never had any issues with Azure or there support during my career...but this is my own experiences. Check it out for yourself
