Office Presentation Service must be removed as an option for presenting PowerPoint and Word online.

An XCCDF Rule

Description

The Office Presentation Service is a free, public service that allows others to follow along in a web browser. Allowing this feature could result in presentations with DoD FOUO, PII and other protected data to be viewed in a nonsecure location. By disabling this policy, the user will not have the ability to deliver a presentation online.
