Macros are one of the most exploited entry points for cyberattacks which are responsible for 42% of initial breaches.
A fake invoice or contract arrives, the user clicks “enable content,” and malware spreads instantly, often undetected for weeks.
Office macro security controls which documents can run automated scripts in Microsoft Office. Instead of allowing all macros, it sets clear rules, letting trusted documents function while blocking malicious ones.
It ensures automation tools like reporting or data processing run safely, without exposing your systems.Attackers rely on macro-enabled files because users trust familiar-looking documents.
The Australian Cyber Security Centre includes macro controls in its Essential Eight Compliance recommendations. Without them, every attachment is a risk. With them, threats are stopped before they execute.
We assess how your teams use macros and build role-based policies that allow essential functionality while blocking risky behavior.
Controls are introduced in phases to avoid disruption. Macro activity is logged, helping refine rules based on real usage.
Macro policies work alongside your email filters, blocking threats before documents reach employees.
