  1. Make classification labels visible without selection

    Currently you must select a folder to see if it's classified. A customer of mine would prefer to see that a folder is classified without having to select it.

  2. Import shield classification pattern values from a xls or doc

    Ability to import custom terms from a xls - the ability to import any shield value (ex email domains) from a xls or doc is important because that is how they manage such lists with other applications

  3. Only allow specific people to have access to the option to override Box Shield Classifications, rather than "everybody or nobody."

  6. Smart Access: Allow move/copy even with download restriction

    Download restriction restricts external users (editor permission) from moving content within folders they have access to. There should be an option to restrict download but also allow for moving and copying within folders that have the classification policy because to an end user, this is not a download function.

  7. Shield access policy customization - inclusion/exclusion list for downloading files

    Interested in an inclusion/exclusion list FOR downloading files, as part of a Shield access policy.

    Ex: If Owners/Co-Owners/Editors are OK to download they want control the file types they can download. I know you can control this by just creating a separate classification and policy but that could cause too many of them. Better to create an filetype inclusion list

  8. Priority of classification policies in combination with shield detection rules

    Hi,
    I can currently prioritize classification policies. Unfortunately, the classifications used in this way categorically overwrite those created with box shield's access policies.
    For example: I have a classification only with shield access policies.. high confidential. This includes external collaboration restriction, download and print restriction.
    It will be set manually on the desired folders. All files in this folder are now protected
    Now i also have a classification with classification policies like credit card number or IBAN code. This should inform user automatically that there's a file with (maybe) protectable content.
    This overwrites the classification which is manually set on…

  10. Add Smart Access Security Control to cap external user permissions

    Add the ability to cap external access. Example; restrict external users to Viewer/Uploader rights or below; or Viewer and below (e.g. Read Only).

  11. Option for Shared Link Restriction on new links only

    We would like the option to apply the shared link restriction to "new links only" so that current links are not overwritten. This would be similar to the External Collaboration Restriction option to apply to "only new external collaborations"

  13. Limit the rights of users who can change classification labels.

    ■Background
    We are currently using Box Shield to control the public scope of shared links.
    Currently, co-owners would still be able to use the classification labels even if they are set to "Owners/co owners" in the below settings.

    We want to make sure that only the owner can set classification labels.

    ■Details
    Classification labels can be configured with "Admin console>Classification".
    When the Box administrator clicks on Settings, the following settings are available:


    Classification settings
    Only allow selected permission types to modify classifications on content.
    See collaboration permission chart.

  14. PCI Compliance

    As a user in an industry which must be PCI compliant,
    I want content flagged by Shield as containing PCI content to not be included in the full-text search index,
    So that our Box environment can be PCI compliant without having to disable full text search for the entire environment.

  15. Device Pinning as a condition for "Download Restriction"

    Wondering if "device pinning" can register details of devices utilized by the user and allows/disallow the login from it. Why cant it be used as a condition under "Download Restriction". MDM solutions are not yet fully matured to cover all & frequently changing devices types .

  16. Preventing Business file leak from Private folder.

    Box in our tenant provides a "Private folder", to every user, which doesn't allow the user to add collaborators. User can, however, use box link to share files with others.

    In a corporate setting, this folder is supposed to be accessible only by its respective owner( an employee), On an exit of the employee from the organisation, the private files in the folder may be allowed by the organisation to be copied/taken by the employee along. However, at the same time, it must be ensured that the business files are not stored in this folder to avoid leakage.

    I suggest…

  17. Return character in Classification Definition

    Currently "Classification Definition" can be written with 'return character' in its input form. But when this "Classification Definition" is shown to the user, 'return character' is being ignored and is shown in one line.

    Definition needs to be shown in the same way it was written / configured, and also needs to be shown in several lines when required (e.g. written in multiple languages where each language's definition needs to be shown in each line, instead of all in single line).

  18. Box Shield

    Can we have more granular on the detection rules, e,g, down to user groups, or individual account level - allowing customers to set priorities as high for some user groups, but low for others.  For some users, a customer may expect high levels of downloads/activity in Box and this may be in peaks and troughs - therefore potentially a lower priority, whereas with execs this activity should be treated as a higher priority and greater risk.

  19. Using Smart Access

    When entering a List when creating a Shield Smart Access Policy, have drop down appear that shows all available lists with short descriptions so the user doesn't have to try to remember the names of the lists they created or what they generally contain.

  20. Visibility and controls on externally owned content

    Box admins should be able to restrict their users from uploading or moving sensitive content to folders that are owned by another Box instance. There should be controls around what defines sensitive content. Box admins should have visibility into what's uploaded or moved into the external folders in reports.
