  1. UI for Legal Holds

    A piece of UI feedback on legal holds: the buttons “release” and “report” are quite close to each other, but do drastically different things. While there is a secondary confirmation screen, it still might be useful to create more physical separation between the two to prevent mistakes.

  2. Contents Security should report the cause of policy violation

    When [Contents Security] catches a policy violation, Box tells the name of policy only.   So Box users need to find the violation data though the file.   If Box can explain a detail point of violation, it will help users to understand and find the cause of violation quickly and easily.

  5. Reset Governance settings

    JFE Steel like to reset Governance setting when Box turned on Governance setting again. JFE Steel set up upload policy when they had POC. Then they did not purchase Governance. When they purchased the Governance later, the setting the customer configured before became effective again. This confused customer. So, Governance setting should be reset when Box turned on the feature.

  6. Custom Terms of Service - Archive of Previous ToS Text

    Currently, when changes are made to the text in an existing custom ToS, Box does not save the original text that was signed off by previous users. Only the most up to date version of the text will be available in Box. I would like to request that, for compliance reasons, there's an archive of previous ToS available so it is clear which specific language each user has signed off on.

  7. Additional approval for large delete actions

  8. Indefinite retention for top level, Finite retention for sub-folders

    Ability to have an Indefinite retention policy as a top level folder and Finite retention policies on sub-folders. Sub folders should by default inherit from the parent, but if listed in another policy then the sub folder should be able to override the default

    a. This would prevent having to have separate folder trees for Indefinite and Finite policies

    b. The parent could be ‘Work in Progress’ and then just move to a sub folder…keeps the documents more logically organized by department

  10. Restrict Classification edits to Governance menu

    A admin can access the Classification template in the Metadata page and delete values of classification. That makes errors. Classification should be only accessible via the Governance menu and not via the Metadata menu.

  13. Use Box as governance layer for content outside Box

    Ability for Box to function as federated content viewer (governance) - as some content will remain outside Box. Use Box as governance layer but not storage element.

  14. Allow upload policy to move to folder instead of quarantine

    instead of flagging/quarantine custom words/numbers with a policy – also would like the option to put those items in a folder.
    - Use Case: work with government agencies and are uploading content to box with SSN and other secure documents so would like those to automatically go to a specific file if item is flagged

  19. Create Legal Holds with the same name as Deleted Legal Holds.

    As a Governance client, I would like to create legal hold policies that have the same name as a previously deleted policy. Currently, this is not possible and will bring up a duplicate error. This is important as we are about to add new policies with the same names for consistency reasons.
