Microsoft India has launched the Office Genuine Advantage (OGA) program to help customers reduce their exposure to risk through non-genuine software. Customers can volunteer to participate in this online program by accepting an automatic notification. Customers can then validate their Microsoft Office software, and make an instant purchase of genuine Office through an online purchase program www.buyoriginalms.com or from a local authorised Microsoft reseller.
According to Microsoft, a survey by KPMG revealed that 39 percent Indian organizations reported security slip-ups of non-genuine software detection in their IT environment. Customers who participate in the OGA program can now reduce this risk and ensure that their software is authentic.
Steps to detect a infected/non-genuine version of Microsoft Office:
Log In. User will be automatically invited to download and install OGA updates.
Accept the update notification. The system will restart.
Open an Office application. OGA will verify the authenticity of software installed.
If non-genuine software is detected, buy original Office -- either online or from the nearest reseller.
According to Microsoft, a genuine version of Office, customers can get:
The most secure version of Office available
Access to support from Microsoft or a trusted partner
Access to the latest offers exclusively reserved for genuine Microsoft software users
Can be better protected with enhancements
OGA works on Office XP, Office 2003 and the Microsoft Office 2007 System.
