About Box
Box operates as a leading cloud content management and collaboration platform that enables organizations to securely store, manage, and share files while maintaining enterprise-grade security and compliance controls.

The company serves over 100,000 businesses globally, including 69% of the Fortune 500, with a particular strength in highly regulated industries like healthcare, financial services, and government.
Box has evolved beyond simple file storage to become a comprehensive content cloud platform that enables digital transformation initiatives. The company's recent focus on Box Shield (AI-powered security), Box Relay (workflow automation), and industry-specific solutions has helped differentiate it from competitors while driving higher customer lifetime value through expanded use cases within existing enterprise accounts.
