Since the rise of the client-server model, IT has steadily moved from a centralized computing model to a highly decentralized one. This shift has dramatically accelerated in the last several years, fueled by mobility, cloud services and service-oriented platforms. This has created immense value for IT and end users, but adapting security controls and tools to a decentralized architecture has proven difficult.

However, a new generation of secure, enterprise cloud services creates the opportunity to mitigate many of these security challenges by centralizing documents onto a single cloud platform.

Box can help extend your security strategy into the cloud. You have made investments into tools and controls - our goal is to integrate with them to give you the assurance and the transparency you need to enable your business users to work securely and effectively. That’s the core of our Customer Protection framework.
