MP.JL.CISOFFINT.L1.081 ActiveX Control Initialization is set to Enabled: 6
Description
CIS Microsoft Intune for Office Benchmark, recommendation 2.3.27.4 (Level 1).
The test passes when an assigned settings catalog policy for Windows sets Microsoft Office 2016 > Security Settings > ActiveX Control Initialization to Enabled, with ActiveX Control Initialization set to 6 in the same policy, and no other assigned policy sets it to something else.
Remediation action
- In the Microsoft Intune admin center, go to Devices > Configuration and open (or create) a settings catalog policy for Windows 10 and later.
- Add Microsoft Office 2016 > Security Settings > ActiveX Control Initialization and set it to Enabled, then set ActiveX Control Initialization to 6.
- Assign the policy to your Windows devices, and remove any other assigned policy that sets it to something else.
