What Makes Microsoft 365 Government Different from Microsoft 365 for Enterprise Offerings?
Microsoft 365 Government-GCC High is uniquely designed to address the compliance requirements of US government agencies and is designed to meet CMMC ML3* standards to managed CUI.
Exclusive Community. Government data centers are available only to government agencies or departments—or commercial companies that have been authorized to hold and process-controlled information on behalf of the US government.
Screened Personnel. Access to your organization’s customer content is restricted to screened Microsoft personnel who are US citizens and have passed required background checks. All of the infrastructure is audited by a certified third-party auditor who provides a security assessment report or attestation letter used by federal agencies to issue an authorization to operate (ATO).
Content Storage. Data is stored within the continental United States within a compliant infrastructure.
*CMMC ML3 requires additional configuration
KAMIND has published three books on Office 365 and security and has migrated over 100,000 users to the Microsoft Cloud.
