File-Sharing Protection
The sprawl of cloud office solutions has opened up new avenues for targeted attacks and data loss over file-sharing applications like Box and OneDrive.

The Wild Wild West of Cloud-Hosted Files
The widespread adoption of file-sharing applications has expanded the threat surface and led to gaps in data visibility. Sensitive and confidential data can easily be shared with the wrong people, both within and across communication channels. Even worse is attackers exploiting public file-sharing folders to host malicious URLs and compromise high-value targets.
Targeted attacks and data loss over file-sharing solutions is prevalent because:

An (insecure) app for everything

Tough to measure dangerous actions

Data loss across apps

Hosting malicious URLs is easy
File-Sharing Security Challenges

Sensitive PII/PCI Disclosure
An employee is accidentally storing a document containing SSNs of their entire team in a shared Box folder.

Cloud-Hosted Zero Day Attacks
Attackers gain access to an employee’s Box credentials and host a zero-day link on Box to compromise high-value targets.

Lateral Data Loss
An employee downloaded sensitive data from email and shared it with noncompliant recipients over Box.

Confidential Data Leaks
An employee shared a Box link for a confidential document containing all your customer data with a contractor.
