Elastica has launched its Box Securlet software designed for security professionals to uncover data leakage vulnerabilities, data theft susceptibilities, and regulatory violations caused by activities on a company’s Box user accounts.
“Box is a leading example of a modern enterprise SaaS application and has paid special attention to the security of its application,” says Rehan Jalil, president and CEO of Elastica. “Intentional or inadvertent user actions are the leading cause of regulatory exposures, data leakages and intellectual property loss. Using advanced machine learning, Elastica’s Box Securlet protects your company data in Box from leakages and exposures caused by user account activities.”
Elastica Box Securlet is an addition to Elastica’s Securlet library on top of CloudSOC platform. Elastica Securlets are standalone security applications on CloudSOC platform that provide advanced security functionality for a specific SaaS application. They can be deployed on their own or in combination with any of the Elastica security applications.
The Box Securlet provides support for the full life cycle of security, including the following:
- Auditing Box account for data leakage exposures, regulatory compliance vulnerabilities like personally identifiable information (PII), Payment Card Information (PCI), Protected Health Information (PHI), or intellectual property loss vulnerabilities like exposure of source code files, financial, design, legal, or other sensitive documents
- Detecting threatening Box user account activity, leveraging advanced machine learning and Data Science. Abnormal and dangerous user behaviors are flagged. Depending upon admin settings, one can cause alerts or automatic remediation activities.
- Protecting sensitive information through enforcement of policies at the content level. Thresholds can be applied, such that a policy could trigger an alert or a remediation action. Remediation could be automatically applied or selectively done manually.
- Investigating for pre- or post-incident response in Box using advanced analytics, filtering, and visualization capabilities. It provides insights into how sensitive company data may be endangered by user actions.
Elastica’s Box Securlet can be subscribed to from the Box Marketplace or from Elastica’s App Store. For a free trial, go to www.elastica.net/box.
