Review Box Best Practices for Data Security Tips
We published a series of articles describing best practices for more secure data management in Box. You can learn to effectively share and collaborate on content responsibly, using the powerful sharing and access control capabilities of Box.
The users you invite to collaborate need to upload, open, and edit files, but should they delete or share the content with others? Choosing the right collaborator permissions can save your data from deletion and other scares.
