  1. block an upload by external user using Box Drive with smart access

    The current Shield feature only controls downloading, cannot blocks uploading/syncing and is not ransom-proof. The biggest problem is that when external users use BoxDrive and BoxSync, ransomware-infected files are uploaded/synchronized on Box.

  2. Improvement of anomalous download

    At the present, Anomalous download can't detect the external user's behavior.
    I think it is the risk of data leakage.
    I want to detect anomalous download of external users who is invited my tenant.
    thanks

  3. Provide an exportable report for Shield Admin for each Anomalous Download alert

    Every time an anomalous download alert is received, IT would ideally want to share a readily available report (XLSX / CSV) with the affected user's manager as they would know far more about the content and whether this is abnormal behavior. As it stands today, if the alert is not big then a manual list of folders / files is provided, or we have to run a User Activity Report (which can take some time) and then filter and cut down accordingly.

  4. 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.

  5. Separate download and print restrictions

    We would like to use download and print restrictions in Access Policy separately.
    Flexible configurations are required, when we handling sensitive files in Box.

    ex. We don't want to allow them to edit, but I do want to allow them to print.

  6. The "Application Restriction" should be configurable with the same granularity as the "Download and Print Restriction".

    (Japanese follows English)

    In the "Download and Print Restriction" section of Box Shield's Access Policy, it is possible to apply download, print, move and copy restrictions to Browser/Mobile/BoxDrive by specifying Managed/Outside Users and Owner/Co-Owner/Editor.
    On the other hand, third-party applications are not included in this restriction, and only downloads can be restricted under "Application Restrictions".
    We would like to be able to set "Application Restriction" to the same granularity as "Download and Print Restriction, as it provides a more consistent user experience if the same controls are applied regardless of which device or application is accessing the site.

  8. Auto Classification policy does not work when folders are copied or moved

    We would like to improve the behavior so that the auto-classification policy works correctly for files within the folder, even if the folder is copied or moved.

    【Details】
    Currently, the Auto Classification policy works correctly when files are copied or moved, but not when folders are copied or moved.
    For example, if a ".dwg" file is stored in the "Technical Information" folder, there is an automatic classification policy that assigns the label "Technical Information" (not for external collaboration).
    In this case, when a file with a .dwg extension is moved from the "Outside Shared" folder, it is automatically assigned the…

  9. Display settings for classification labels

    We would like to be able to temporarily not display (not disclose) classification labels within a tenant after they are created, but in that case, we need to delete all classification label settings, and it is time-consuming to set them each time, so we would like to be able to select whether to show or hide them.

  10. Anomalous Download Alerts for external users

    For the Anomalous Download Alerts, I would like it to apply to external users too so that if they are invited to our tenant's folder and they start downloading a lot I get an alert.

  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. Secure admin only download of 'malicious' files for analysis

    Admins should be able to download Box Shield tagged malware without marking the file safe for everyone. That way a security admin could download the file and scan it with their own security tools. That’s the only real way to diagnose if a file is malicious or just a false positive.

    Asking us to mark it safe by chatting with the user is far from best practice

  13. Additional Information BoxShield Anomalous Download Alerts

    Include further information within the anomalous download alert to show which application\service was used. Currently, this is only available from the user activity report, which takes a while to generate.

    If the hostname and device type could be included, this would help decipher if anomalous downloads have taken place acorss multipe devices.

  14. in-progress label by MIP integration

    Users sometimes encounter issues that it takes a long time(hours) to apply classification labels by MIP integration. Can you add the status label of in-progress getting a MIP label?

  15. internal collaboration

    Add a "Internal Collaboration Restriction" option for Box shield access policy. My company uses file classifications that are intended to inform users so that they know to restrict sharing of files to only those who need to know. It would be great to use the justification feature that already exists in the External collaboration restriction but within our domain.

  17. Block file request via classification / access policy

    Currently there is no security control for access policies that allows to block file requests.
    We created a classification "external" with the security control "External Collaboration Restriction". However it is still possible that externals upload files to these folders. To us this is also a way of external collaboration. And this also creates the risk of mixing internal and external files in folders that are classified as internal.

  18. 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.

  19. Wish to improve the custom terms in the classification settings to include the string custom term + string in the search.

    The following rules apply to custom terms in the classification settings:

    [Reference]
    Also, the characters surrounding any match must be of a different type (letters or digits) from the adjacent characters within the word. For example:

    if the policy looks for "Acme-Internal", the scan will match on "Acme Internal", "acme-internal", "Acme - Internal", "Acme (INTERNAL)", "Acme: Internal", "728Acme-Internal", "Acme - Internal728", "Acme-Internal-728", and so on, but not "Acme-Internalization", or "Acem-Internal".
    if the policy looks for "AcmeInternal", the scan will match on "acmeinternal", "AcmeINTERNAL", "AcmeInternal4u", and so on, but not "Acme Internal", "Acme_Internal", "AcmenInternalization", "Acme"

  20. Create an audit only mode for classification policies

    Auto-classification policies can receive an audit only mode similar to Shield Access Policies. Essentially an auto-classification policy in audit only mode will return a list of files that would have triggered an auto-classification upon upload or interaction. Shield administrators can then review the list of files that would have been classified and review for accuracy.

    Decreases risk of misclassifying content due to policy misconfigurations.
