Quote:Microsoft announced that a new security feature dubbed Safe Documents will be available in private preview for Office 365 ProPlus customers starting today.
Safe Documents, now available in private preview for Microsoft 365 E5 and E5 Security customers, is designed to automatically check Microsoft Office documents against known threat profiles
and risks before allowing the users to open them.
Safe Documents is an Office 365 Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) feature that uses Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection to automatically scan documents opened in Protected View.
"Users are not asked to decide on their own whether a document can be trusted; they can simply focus on the work to be done," Microsoft explains.
"This seamless connection between the desktop and the cloud both simplifies the user workflow and helps to keep the network more secure."
To configure Safe Documents, you have to use the Office 365 Security & Compliance Center as detailed here. Safe Documents will be rolling out in stages, to be initially available for tenants from the U.S.,
the U.K., and the European Union.
