Microsoft 365 offers a *RMS / Right Management Service* called *Azure Information Protection* which is integrated with Outlook, Word, Excel. It encrypts documents of certain files, in a nutshell. On a Windows computer switching between two accounts within Word is relatively easy, but switching the under-the-hood RMS/AIP account is harder. On Windows you launch the *Azure Information Protection Unified Labeling Client* and reset the logged-in account via that application (update :/). On a Mac the integration in Office of AIP with Sensitivity Labels is similar to Windows; however, no AIP- unified (right-click) client exists at the moment of writing for Mac OS. My question is: **How do I log-out or reset the logged-in AIP user on a Mac?** It doesn't not matter what the logged-in account in Word is, that one is not necessarily linked to the account which logged is in AIP/RMS and fetches the appropriate Sensitivity labels and access rights.
