  2. Shield Malware Threat Detection False Positives on Excel Documents with Macros

    Multiplan (160k ARR) turned on Malware Deep Scan and was getting 3-5 false positives per day because users across multiple departments often work on Excel Documents with Macros. Due to their process, users need to upload new versions of these Excel documents daily (they cannot use Version Control to handle this). So the IT team is being pinged every time a new version is added. This has been so overwhelming that the IT team has turned off Malware Detection. They will enable again if Macros are not accidentally flagged as potentially malicious.

  3. Information barrier - Increase segments

    Currently, Box ethical walls have a limit of 10 segments, Which needs to be increased. Many companies like us have more business units, Hence we need more segments to handle it.

  4. Box Shield leverage DLP auto classification to trigger an Ethical Wall (aka Information Barrier)

    Box Shield leverage DLP auto classification to trigger an Ethical Wall (aka Information Barrier).

    Today, configuring an Ethical Wall (aka Information Barrier) is all manual, and these should be able to be triggered by Box Smart Access (aka DLP) the same way that external collaboration can be automatically turned off for Box Smart Access.

    E.g. a document says "Secret Project XYZ," then by default only management can access files that contain this phrase.

    E.g. a document has bank account numbers on it, then by default only finance can access it.

    E.g. a document has social security numbers on it, then…

  7. Box Shield - Get notified about a classified document if it gets placed in a folder with unauthorized parties

    Box Shield get notified about a classified document if it gets placed in a folder with unauthorized parties (e.g. internal only doc gets placed in external folder… today, an external person can’t open the document, but it would be good to get notified that we need to put it back in the correct place).

  10. Remove Approved Integration API as Suspicious in Shield Suspicious Location

    Similar to the pulse below, I would like Shield Suspicious Location to not mark already integrated application IP address as suspicious because there are too many noise due to this.

  11. Export Control (ITAR/EAR) support by Box Shield (Increase the maximum number of Shield Classifications & Applying a classification label to

    In the case of having global offices/teams, contents related to Export control are dispersed globally. However, the contents need to be in compliance for Export control.
    The following two enhancements work well for supporting ITAR/EAR with dispersed contents in one Box entity:
    1. Increase the maximum number of Shield Classifications - There is a limitation Classification (it's 25) now. To create combination label via country-base for ITAR/EAR, it requires a larger number of classifications.
    2. Applying a classification label to a specific group - this ability is required to support large number of Classification (above enhancement).

  12. Restrict number of groups you can invite to certain folder

    For certain Shield labels I would like to restrict the number of groups co-owners can invite to avoid unnecessary collaboration.

  13. Restrict users to only some Shield label

    Currently you can choose which users can put Shield label to contents.
    However, this setting is for the whole tenant but I would like to set different types of users to some Shield label that does not apply to all the Shield labels.

  14. Trigger rescan for Auto-Classification when adding new classifications

    We did not implement Box Shield immediately upon standing up our new environment. After over 1TB of data was uploaded, leadership wanted us to implement new auto-classifications. There is currently no way to force a rescan of all existing documents to apply those new classifications. Going into each folder and copy/pasting, moving, or editing each file is impractical for tens of thousands of uploaded files. Would like a simple way to trigger the rescan without having to engage for a consulting project for box.com to create custom scripts to update the classifications.

  15. Box Shield Delete Restriction Security Control

    Adding an additional Shield security control to restrict the ability of Editors to send content to Trash would be a great way to fill the gap between Viewer Uploader and Editor permissions. One of the primary use cases for Viewer Uploader is the ability to collaborate on content without being able to delete that content but in its current state, Viewer Uploaders are also restricted from other important collaborative features like inviting collaborators.

  17. Permanently purge files with the Shiled label

    Business activities sometimes require customers to permanently purge confidential information.
    However, many Box tenants have the problem of too many items in the Recycle Bin, making selective permanent purging of files impossible!

    We would like to apply the Shield label to the lifecycle of such sensitive information.
    Please consider adding the behavior of permanent purging from the Recycle Bin after a certain period of time for files with the Shield label.

    Supporting permanent purging by label would provide complete lifecycle management of sensitive information.

  18. Shield alert to show more than 90 days

    Currently the Shield dashboard only show up to 90 days of alerts.

  19. File version on Shield Alert

    I would like to have the actual file version shown in the Shield Dashboard Alert ID. Currently it shows when the file is uploaded but does not show the file version. If the version is shown, it would be much easier to check the file.

  20. Box Shield Dashboard "Next" and "Back" button in Alert ID page

    When looking at the specific Alert ID page, I would like to have a "Next" and "Back" page so that I can go to the next Alert ID page. This is because when I get the alert ID result through the filtering and I go back to the Shield Dashboard, the filtering is reset so I need to set the filtering again to see the other Alert ID I wanted to see.
