Box Shield – the Box’s flagship security control and intelligent threat detection solution, has capability to help customers reduce the risk of ransomware by scanning files in near real-time as they are uploaded to Box. These new capabilities, leverage deep learning technology and external threat intelligence to analyze files and stop sophisticated malware (before it causes business disruption) by adding deep learning technology that complements traditional hash-based or file-fingerprint scanning approaches that leverage known malware datasets. Customers has benefits from an additional layer of security that looks inside of individual files to identify malware and then automatically clears the file or blocks the spread of malware in near real-time. These capabilities provide customers using Box Shield with higher malware detection rates and fewer false positives.
Malware deep scan allows Box Shield to:
• Recognize malicious traits inside content in near real-time by leveraging the latest deep learning models to provide customers with broader coverage of sophisticated malware.
• Extend malware detection to active content in Box as users upload, update, download, preview, share, copy or move content to reduce the risk of malware infection by scanning both new and historical content.
• Analyze external content that is accessed by managed users to expand protection to content that is shared with an organization from an external source.
• Allow admins to occasionally override threat verdicts for low-risk content to avoid disrupting business workflows.
Box also provides enhanced alerts powered by machine learning for anomalous user behavior like suspicious downloads in Box Shield. Admins are receiving more detailed alerts with context explaining why Box Shield’s machine learning algorithm has deemed certain behaviors as risky. These improvements better equip admins in their investigation of anomalous behavior and provide granular feedback to train underlying algorithms for their company.
Auto-classification in Box Shield
In addition to helping detect and thwart potential insider threats or compromised accounts, Box Shield also uses advanced machine learning to help prevent accidental data leaks through a system of manual and automated security classifications for files, folders, and classification-based access policies. Auto-classification in Box Shield intelligently applies labels to files based on content inside, enabling customers to discover and label sensitive files at scale.
