Microsoft Office 365 Government Subscriptions

Updated: Aug 8, 2022



What is Microsoft GCC? GCC, Government Community Cloud, can essentially be thought of as a government focused copy of the commercial environment. It has many of the same features, but features data centers ONLY in the continental United States (CONUS), as mandated by FedRAMP Moderate. Compliance frameworks that can be met in GCC include: DFARS 252.204-7012 (As of February 2021 Microsoft will now attest to compliance) DoD SRG Level 2 (with no provisional authority) FBI CJIS (Criminal Justice Information Services) FedRAMP High It is important to note that GCC is 100% insufficient for ITAR, EAR and most Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and Controlled Defense Information (CDI) handling. The reason behind this is that the identity component and network that GCC resides on is Azure Commercial and does not meet import/export controls since it is global and access is not limited to U.S Citizens.

They provide all the features and capabilities of Office 365 services in a segmented government cloud community that enables organizations to meet U.S. compliance and security standards.
