Vulnerability discussion

Office 365 is a subscription-based service which offers access to various Microsoft Office applications. Access to Office 365 will not be permitted; only locally installed and configured Office 2013 installations will be used. Since the ability to sign into Office 365 will be disabled, this policy, which determines whether a video about signing into Office365 is played when Office first runs, will also be disabled.

Check content

Verify the policy value for User Configuration >> Administrative Templates >> Microsoft Office 2013 >> First Run >> "Disable First Run Movie" is set to "Enabled". Use the Windows Registry Editor to navigate to the following hive: HKEY_Users For every users profile hive under HKEY_Users, navigate to the following key: \software\policies\Microsoft\office\15.0\firstrun Criteria: If the value “disablemovie” is REG_DWORD = 1 for every user profile hive, this is not a finding.

Fix text

Set the policy value for User Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Microsoft Office 2013 -> First Run -> "Disable First Run Movie" to "Enabled".

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
