Checklist Summary:

Office 365 ProPlus is the full version of Office that is installed on a user’s local computer and runs locally. System requirements are similar to prior Office versions. Office 365 ProPlus uses the Click-to-Run installation technology and by default installs as one package. However, it can be configured to exclude or remove certain Office 365 ProPlus products from client computers. Many of the same tools used to deploy and configure previous Office versions are used for Office 365 ProPlus. The Microsoft Office 365 ProPlus Security Technical Implementation Guide (STIG) provides the technical security policies, requirements, and implementation details for applying security concepts to the Office 365 ProPlus application, as installed on a user’s local computer. This document is intended to improve the security of Department of Defense (DoD) information systems. Individual STIGs for each Office application program will not be created; instead, all requirements for all Office application programs will be included in this one STIG.
