ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø

University Technology ([U]Tech) enabled the Box Drive desktop app for integration with the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Box instance. Box Drive has a similar purpose, but distinct function from the Box Sync app. Box Drive allows users to search and view all the content in their Box account (including read-only) from the desktop operating system's file system, as well as upload content to and open files from any Box folder. These features are not available in the Box Sync app, which is a data-mirroring tool for remote or offline file access. For a comparison of the different functionality of Box Drive and Box Sync, refer to the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Box Drive page at case.edu/utech/box/box-drive/. [U]Tech will keep both Box Sync and Box Drive enabled simultaneously, but recommends that users uninstall Box Sync if they wish to use Box Drive, and vice versa.

Security Note for all Box users

Both Box Drive and Box Sync locally cache files that the user has opened. Users who work with sensitive or restricted data are advised to use a Whole Disk Encryption solution such as Symantec FDE, BitLocker or FileVault for any hard drives where sensitive data might be stored.
