MP.JL.CISOFFINT.L1.178 Scan encrypted macros in PowerPoint Open XML presentations is set to Enabled: Scan encrypted macros

Severity: MediumGraph

Description

CIS Microsoft Intune for Office Benchmark, recommendation 2.6.6.6.5 (Level 1).

The test passes when an assigned settings catalog policy for Windows sets Microsoft PowerPoint 2016 > PowerPoint Options > Security > Scan encrypted macros in PowerPoint Open XML presentations to Enabled, with Scan encrypted macros in PowerPoint Open XML presentations set to Scan encrypted macros (default) in the same policy, and no other assigned policy sets it to something else.

Remediation action

  1. In the Microsoft Intune admin center, go to Devices > Configuration and open (or create) a settings catalog policy for Windows 10 and later.
  2. Add Microsoft PowerPoint 2016 > PowerPoint Options > Security > Scan encrypted macros in PowerPoint Open XML presentations and set it to Enabled, then set Scan encrypted macros in PowerPoint Open XML presentations to Scan encrypted macros (default).
  3. Assign the policy to your Windows devices, and remove any other assigned policy that sets it to something else.
