Requirement #4 for Azure Rights Management: Applications
Introduction
The following applications natively support Azure RMS, which means that RMS is tightly integrated into these applications by using RMS APIs to support usage restrictions. These applications are also known as "RMS-enlightened".
Microsoft Office
Microsoft Office applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook) from the following suites can protect content by using Azure RMS:
- Office 365 ProPlus
- Office 365 Enterprise E3
- Office 365 Enterprise E4
- Office Professional Plus 2016

- Office Professional Plus 2010
Other editions of Office (with the exception of Office 2007) can consume protected content.
