Office Security Assistant
Office Security Assistant appears to be a security-focused utility app for Mac users, likely designed to help protect or scan Microsoft Office documents for potential security threats. Based on the bundle ID (fz16846.Office-Security-Assistant) and name, it seems to be a specialized tool that may check Office files for malware, suspicious macros, or other security issues before opening them. However, detailed information about this specific application's features and current development status is limited.

1 suggestionUnfortunately, no clear information was found about whether Office Security Assistant has been updated with Apple Silicon support, nor could we verify if the app is still actively maintained by its developer. Given the limited information available and the app's apparent low profile, it may be discontinued or abandoned. If you rely on Office document security scanning, consider switching to a native alternative like Malwarebytes for Mac, which offers real-time protection and document scanning with full Apple Silicon support, or use the built-in security features in recent versions of Microsoft Office for Mac, which now include enhanced macro security and threat protection.
