Secure open link - Require email address verification with one-time password
【Summary】
Please add "Require email address confirmation by one-time password" to the Open Link settings.
This will allow the access statistics to show the email addresses of users who have accessed from the open link, so that you can determine if the access is suspicious or not.【Problem to be solved】
The current open link is not secure enough.
This is because it is not possible to determine who accessed the file.
With the current use, if a user who is not logged in to Box accesses from an open link, the access history only shows the IP address and…24 votes -
Folders to which only managed users can be invited
【Request】
Regarding the "Restrict collaboration to within {OrganizationName}" setting in the folder settings,
I would like the definition of users recognized as users in the organization to be selectable from the following two options
・Users who have same domains OR Managed Users (Same as current specifications)
・Only Managed Users【Current specifications ＆ Issues】
Currently, for folders with this setting turned on, users can invite others who meet either of the following conditions
- Managed users of the tenant
- Users with a Box account with an email address in the registered domainAs it stands, this specification allows free accounts…

The option to separate file and folder permissions for a specific folder tree.
We have a folder structure that we use for our external partners where each external entity has their own subfolder. Our internal user community needs Editor permission to manage the files – move, delete, and rename but that gives them the ability to accidentally drag one external partner’s folder into a direct competitor’s folder. This would be a disaster. If I could give our internal users File-Editor and Folder-Viewer Uploader permissions the likelihood of the above mistake would drop significantly.

Automatic actions based on alerts
We would like to be able to set automated actions based on alerts. For example if Box detects anomalous download with a risk score higher than e.g. 60 or a set threshold of number of files, the user’s account will be locked to stop further downloads.
A message should then be sent to the user and IT admin that it has been locked due to anomalous download detection. Then IT need to do a investigate and take action, or reactivate the account if it is a false positive.
The pain point of not having this option is that the current…

Need to have the ability to share links with "Invited people" in organization and to external people in named specific domain
Need to have the ability to share links with "Invited people" in organization and to external people in named specific domain.
We have a need to keep folder collaboration available to only a specific group of internal users but we would like to be able to have the ability to share files or folders with external collaborators in specific domains. Almost like another level of the "Invited People" type of link. Can this be considered as an enhancement?

Capability to finalize files
It would be useful if it's possible to "finalize" files. Means some persons work on a file together until it is finalized and then prevent any further modification on the file. There is the Lock function, but then the person who locked the file, could still unlock it.

Secure open link - Domain white list for open shared link
This request is an idea that will become possible after the following requests are realized.
Secure open link① - Require email address verification with one-time password
https://pulse.box.com/forums/909778-help-shape-the-future-of-box/suggestions/43755942-secure-open-link-require-email-address-verifica【Summary】
Please add "Allow only email addresses from specific domains to receive one-time passwords" to the Open Link settings.
This will make it possible to prevent secondary distribution and miscommunication, which is a huge issue for Open Link.【Issues to be solved】
Current Open Link is not secure enough as an alternative to attachments.
Compared to attachments, the ability to determine the information of the access source and the ability to block access…15 votes -
Enable ability to require that someone shares their email when depositing a File Request
Enable ability to require that someone shares their email when depositing a File Request.
Today, I can only require someone to login to their Box account OR use a text field that says email, but I want a field SPECIFICALLY called email inside of File Request, so that I can trigger a Box Relay workflow to notify the email of whoever triggered the workflow (e.g. if a submission is denied, I want to notify them that it was denied and to include why........ if a submission was approved, I want to notify them that it was approved and to include…

Shared link expiration - based on no interaction
It would help increase security if we had an option for external links - if they aren’t interacted with after a number of days (30,60,90, etc) they’re deactivated. Our team shares content but there is often turnover and no way to know if links are still out there. With an external link report, it would help show what's out there, but would be helpful to have additional controls.

MFA Excluded User List Needed
MFA Excluded User List Needed - if a user has to switch MFA devices, as of now the Admin would need to globally turn MFA off for everyone, also an admin might need to setup a box account and login as a user (say using lastpass) before the hire date, thus they need to be on an exclusion list until they start, additionally automated processes might need a login that would be excluded from MFA needs direclty within box, thus the requirement for an exclusion list for MFA that is freely adjustable.
5 votes- We will soon have the ability to download back up codes that can be used in case you don't have access to your MFA device.
- Certain Box plans have the ability to exempt specific users from MFA.
- We do have this exclusion list for external users.
Given these, we don't have plans to add an exclusion list for managed user MFA at this point.

Restrict day of week and/or times when licensed users can authenticate into Box
Allow admins the option to restrict which days of the week and/or time of day is allowed for licensed users to authenticate into Box, individually and/or as part of a role/Box Group. This would be helpful for multiple use-cases. Restricting Box access at specific times can assist with ensuring compliance with wage and hour laws, limiting changes that can be made in Box to times when staff will be available to respond and/or address changes, and limiting access during periods where access is not expected or desired by the licensing organization helping to better secure Box content.

Modify session duration across all plans
A 14 day session duration is a highly unnecessary security risk for any organization working information with any level of sensitivity. Please open up the ability to reduce this to any paid plan, rather than only the Enterprise plan. It feels like a very minor thing compared to the more complex feature sets and automation that otherwise distinguish the plans. It was sub-optimal, but somewhat acceptable, to not be able to reduce this when the default was 48 hours, but it's really concerning to not be able to do so now that the default has been made so much longer.

Please make the login form as one step
Now the login form have two steps - at first step I need to fill login, then press "Next" button (for what?), fill my password, press "Log in".
This type of login form brings problems with auto-filling credentials by most of browser plugins.
Please remove the surplus useless step with pressing "Next" in login form, to allow fill login and password in one page, using "Tab" button (or auto-fill plugin), like in most of other websites.

Box Relay: Remove Collaborators and Shared Links
We would like the ability to use Box Relay to automatically remove all Collaborators and Shared Links from a folder and all of the sub-items within that folder.
This functionality would be used to secure company files when an employee is off-boarded and ideally this process would be generated by placing a folder within another folder.1 vote -
Set "SSO Required"/"SSO Enabled" for each user
The current "SSO Required" is for all managed users.
When creating "administrator user and general user" as a managed user, there are the following problems.
-It is necessary to create an administrator user ID on the IdP side.
-When accessing as an administrative user, it takes time and effort to log in from the IdP and access Box.
-A license fee will also be charged on the IdP side.If we can set "SSO required" and "SSO enabled" for each user, the problem will be solved.

Child Sexual Abuse Material
Apple's recent announcement of measures taken to improve child safety (https://www.apple.com/child-safety/) have raised an important concern about content stored in Box and what measures we can take as an enterprise to address it. While there does not appear to be anything that we can do at this point, perhaps adding a feature in Shield that provides MD5 pattern matching (similar to known malware scanning) that would allow administrators to be alerted when this kind of material shows up in their Box instance.
Background on the issue: https://www.missingkids.org/theissues/csam
