Elastica, the leader in Data Science Powered Cloud Application Security, today
launched its Box Securlet. The software makes it possible for security
professionals to uncover data leakage vulnerabilities, data theft
susceptibilities and regulatory violations caused by activities on a company's
Box user accounts. The Box Securlet can show its value in minutes after a few
clicks of easy on-boarding, by flagging possible content exposures, data
leakages, policy violations and vulnerabilities (like PCI, HIPAA or others).
With this deep insight and controls, security professionals can better define
and enforce policies for data loss prevention on Box. A free trial of Box
Securlet is available at www.elastica.net/box.
"Box is a leading example of a modern enterprise SaaS application and has
paid special attention to the security of its application," said Rehan Jalil,
President & 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 following:
1. 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. Data Science powered
Auditing results can be provided within minutes after on-boarding to Elastica
Box Securlet.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. Investigating for pre- or post-incident response in Box using
advanced analytics, filtering and visualization capabilities. It provides deep
insights into how sensitive company data may be endangered by user actions.
