Allow admins to block external users from using MFO in Drive
Create an option to allow enterprise admin to block Box Drive for external users, on per user basis.
We have this feature in Box Sync (for managed users only) and need this feature to be extended to external users for Box Drive, due to security reason: Compared to downloading from Box Webapp , it is very easy for external users to get a lot of our contents with MFO. It is out of our control and we cannot guarantee as well if external user’s machines are secure enough (HDD encryption, antivirus software etc.).”

@Matthew Ryan,
That is not true. MFO functionality is available for those who are able to download (i.e. including Viewer and Viewer Uploader).

Consider restricting external collaborators to "Viewer Uploader" (which can edit files but not delete) rather than granting them full Editor access. MFO functionality is not available for access levels below Editor.
