For Microsoft 365 Enterprise clients

"To help protect you, Office opens files from potentially unsafe locations in Application Guard, a secure container that's isolated from the device through hardware-based virtualization. When Office opens files in Application Guard, you can securely read, edit, print, and save those files without having to re-open files outside the container.

If you believe the file is safe, you can choose to open the file outside Application Guard. If your administrator has enabled Safe Documents, the file will be verified against the Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection (MDATP) service to determine if it's malicious before it's opened outside Application Guard."

I actually have Microsoft 365 Enterprise . How can I check if this feature is working?

Ah, after reading a little further:
How do I enable Application Guard?

In my experience, the MS Office and Windows licenses available on Ebay do not seem to be volume licenses generated by KMS hacker tools. Those KMS licenses show as "managed by organization," and these licenses don't show that designation.

coz there is no kms hacktool involved they steal the keys from legit large companies "managed by organization" got nothing to do with windows license key it has to do with the linked work account also companies can run their own licensed windows activation servers everything at a place like this is illegal or stolen, same as ebay, everybody that says ebay licenses are legitimate they are not they are all illegal pirated or stolen noboody sells something worth 100 Euros for 2 Euros


Mod edit: Removed warez link
The MS Office licenses I have bought on Ebay belonged to organizations that are allowed to assign accounts to individuals. This is a legal grey area, as it is not possible for the buyer to determine conclusively who within the org assigned the license and if he broke a contract by doing so. Thus the legal responsibility for the infringement, if any, falls on the seller.
If you maintain that the buyer broke the law, please show us at least one case where someone who bought an MS license on Ebay was found guilty by a court of law, or was even prosecuted for the alleged offense.
