Microsoft 365 GCC High Licensing
Secure Your Government Cloud Solutions
We Know Government Licensing
Protecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) is complicated and navigating federal information protection requirements is just as complex. Having the wrong Microsoft licensing can derail your Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) efforts and leave users, information, and your environment at risk. Agile IT has been a Microsoft partner since 2006 and was among the first six partners selected to license Azure Government, GCC, and GCC High.
For customers concerned with International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), Microsoft 365 GCC High is the only Microsoft solution that meets ITAR standards.
The Microsoft Agreement for Online Services – Government (AOS-G) program was created to support federal, defense, and aerospace contractors that must meet enhanced cybersecurity control requirements. As an AOS-G partner, our mission is to make sure our clients don’t just get what they want, they get what they need.

Understanding AOS-G Licensing
The AOS-G program is the only way for companies with less than 500 seats to purchase GCC High Licensing. This is done through a modified Enterprise Agreement, which is different from commercial licensing acquisition in numerous ways (see below). Azure Government subscriptions are available for a variety of use cases, including long-term logging for security and audit purposes.
Ensuring you have the correct licensing for GCC High is crucial, as mistakes in this process can have significant financial implications.
Choose an experienced partner to avoid potential risks and costly errors in GCC High licensing.

Licenses Available
Microsoft 365 GCC High does not have an equivalent to commercial Microsoft 365 Business licensing. These licenses are insufficient to meet NIST 800-171 controls, so they are not offered. Microsoft 365 Frontline and Enterprise licenses are available and supported.

Cost
Given the additional security and compliance services provided by Microsoft, GCC High licensing is approximately 70% more costly than comparable commercial licensing.

Agreement Term
Microsoft 365 GCC High is licensed via a modified Enterprise Agreement and therefore licenses must be purchased for one year at a time. During that year, licenses can be added and reassigned, but they cannot be removed.
