Okay. I think I understand, what you're saying is the funds remain on the blockchain, but now I have access through a new platform, electrum.

Right.

Your bitcoin is always on the blockchain (By blockchain, I mean a ledger that include all bitcoin transactions, not blockchain.com website).
Non-custodial wallets like electrum are tools that give you access to yout coins.

Someone earlier in the post stated that have a blockchain wallet is dangerous due to it being web based and hackers can get to it.

That's right. You should always avoid web wallets especially a close-source wallet like blockchain.com.

So what I'm asking is if my funds are now secure form that? Or at the very least more secure?

No.
You are still using the same wallet and your keys have been generated by blockchain.com.

I recommend you to create a new wallet in electrum, make a transaction and move all your fund to the new wallet.
Don't forget to keep the seed phrase of your new wallet somewhere safe.

In this way, you can make your wallet safer (but not 100% safe, because any online wallet is prone to hacking).
