Box Discovery Task Wizard

Administrator Help | Forcepoint DLP | Version 8.7.x

Use the Permissions page of the Box discovery task wizard to grant Forcepoint DLP access to the organization's Box account. This requires logging on to Box.

If you are using Internet Explorer to configure this task, complete the following steps. This is not required for other browsers.

Select Settings > Internet Options.

On the Privacy tab, click Sites.

Enter the web address www.box.com, then click Allow.

Click OK.

In the Box discovery task wizard, click Grant Access.

You're redirected to the Box website.

Log onto the Box account associated with your organization. Enter the email address (user name) and password of an account administrator, then click Authorize.

A Grant Access page appears in the Box interface.

Click Grant Access to Box to give Forcepoint DLP permission to connect with the organization's Box storage. With access, the system can read and write to all files and folders and manage the enterprise.

Box issues a security token to the management server and displays connection status.

On connection, you are returned to the Forcepoint Security Manager to resume task configuration. Click Next to continue.

If Box fails to connect, the wizard will not continue to the next page. Try again, or try to log onto Box with different credentials.


	Note Box security tokens are valid for 6o days. Tasks that run with expired tokens complete with errors. In the Details pane for the task, the link for Scan Status explains: "Tokens are expired. Please re-enter credentials for the task." If this happens, edit each Box task that uses the token and re-grant access.

Click Next, then continue with Box Discovery Task Wizard - Scanned Accounts.
