DTOO156 - InfoPath - Offline Mode capability to cache queries for offline mode must be configured.

Information

InfoPath can function in online mode or offline mode. It can also cache queries for use in offline mode. If offline mode is used and cached queries are enabled, sensitive information contained in the cache could be at risk. By default, InfoPath is in online mode, but offline mode is available to users. Users can also cache queries for use in offline mode.

Solution

Set the policy value for User Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Microsoft InfoPath 2010 -> InfoPath Options -> Advanced -> Offline 'Offline Mode status' to 'Enabled (Enabled, InfoPath not in Offline Mode)'.
