Microsoft does not provide customer-specific architecture diagrams for deployed Azure OpenAI models. However, it does offer general reference architectures that show how models are secured within an Azure Virtual Network (VNet) environment. Here’s what you need to know:
Data Isolation & Security:
Each customer's Azure OpenAI instance is logically isolated from others within the same service boundary.
Fine-tuned models are accessible only by the customer who deployed them.
Microsoft does not store, retain, or access customer data, including fine-tuned models, prompts, and completions.
Data usage policy - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/legal/cognitive-services/openai/data-privacy
Network Security & Compliance
Customers can deploy models within a private VNet to ensure security and prevent public exposure.
Private Endpoints, Network Security Groups (NSGs), and Azure Firewall can be used to restrict access.
Azure Monitor and Log Analytics allow tracking of resource usage and potential security threats.
Encryption is enforced both at rest (via Azure Storage encryption) and in transit (TLS 1.2+).
Official References & Best Practices
Microsoft’s Azure OpenAI Data Privacy & Security documentation confirms that all customer data remains within their Azure subscription and is not accessible by Microsoft or OpenAI (Microsoft Docs).
Additional best practices for securing Azure OpenAI models are outlined, including DDoS protection, content filtering, and access control via RBAC and Azure AD.
Below are the reference docs:
Content Filtering - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/openai/concepts/content-filter
Follow best practices for securing Azure AI infrastructure with confidential data - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cloud-adoption-framework/scenarios/ai/infrastructure/security?source=recommendations
While an exact customer-specific architecture diagram is not available, you can use the above best practices and reference documents to demonstrate how Azure ensures model security and data isolation. Let me know if you need further clarification!
