DTOO416 - The Office Telemetry Agent must be configured to obfuscate the file name, file path, and title of Office documents before uploading telemetry data to the shared folder.

Information

This policy setting configures Office Telemetry Agent to disguise, or obfuscate, certain file properties that are reported in telemetry data. If you enable this policy setting, Office Telemetry Agent obfuscates the file name, file path, and title of Office documents before uploading telemetry data to the shared folder. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, Office Telemetry Agent uploads telemetry data that shows the full file name, file path, and title of all Office documents.

Solution

Set the policy value for User Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Microsoft Office 2016 -> Telemetry Dashboard -> 'Turn on privacy setting in Office Telemetry Agent' to 'Enabled'.
