Box security — shared links, external collab and apps.
Box stores your files — public shared links, broad external collaboration and over-scoped apps are how they leak. WoneShield secures your Box posture and data sharing continuously.

Why Box security
The risks Box won't fix for you.
Public shared links
Open shared links expose files to anyone with the URL, often indefinitely and unmonitored.
Broad external collaboration
External collaborators added to sensitive folders extend access well beyond your organization.
Over-scoped apps & integrations
Connected apps with broad access become an unaudited data-exfiltration path.
