What is Box
From [UA OIT]: Box is a cloud storage service that provides 500GB of cloud storage to students, faculty, and staff of The University of Alabama via Box.com. Box is accessible on desktop and mobile devices, and it is encrypted both in transit and storage. All Box servers are based in the United States.
Box is also useful for sharing and collaboration – folders and documents may be shared among users for distributed editing and viewing. Box has robust permissions settings, allowing collaborators to be viewers or editors, and it keeps revisions of documents so that your work is never lost.
The University has a Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act Business Associate Agreement (HIPAA BAA) with Box to allow use for Protected Health Information.
