CIS Microsoft Intune for Office Benchmark

Description

CIS Microsoft Intune for Office Benchmark, recommendation 2.11.8.7.2.8 (Level 1).

The test passes when an assigned settings catalog policy for Windows sets Microsoft Word 2016 > Word Options > Security > Trust Center > Scan encrypted macros in Word Open XML documents to Enabled, with Scan encrypted macros in Word Open XML documents 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 Word 2016 > Word Options > Security > Trust Center > Scan encrypted macros in Word Open XML documents and set it to Enabled, then set Scan encrypted macros in Word Open XML documents 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.
