Azure Migrate determines the recommended VM security type, Trusted Launch or Standard—based on an evaluation of each VM's compatibility with Trusted Launch Virtual Machine (TVM) requirements. It verifies the supported operating systems, generation type (Gen 2), boot and disk configuration, and other prerequisites defined by Azure for Trusted Launch. If a VM meets these requirements, Trusted Launch is recommended by default to provide enhanced security features, such as secure boot, vTPM, and integrity monitoring at no extra cost. If the VM doesn't meet the criteria, it is assigned a Standard security type, ensuring compatibility while maintaining migration readiness.
