Reporting: Best Practice / Getting Started

While reports can sometimes be an after thought when administering Box, I find that clients who schedule reports upon deploying Box stay the most in tune with their end user footprint. While there are many reports within your admin console, I would highly recommend scheduling one of our largest/most customizable reports, User Activity, to run on a weekly or monthly basis. Your end user / content footprint can be extremely vast and keeping record of your enterprise’s Box activity can make your life much easier to take action when needed.

User File Permission for Box Hubs

How does Box Hubs interact with a user’s file permissions? For example, would a user see/interact with a file if they aren’t invited to the Hub already?

Use cases for Box Hubs

I’m brainstorming use cases for Box Hubs for the retail space - beyond team Hubs like HR or marketing, what other business related use cases are you all testing with Box Hubs?

Blocking IP Addresses

Is it possible to block IP addresses for accessing our Box environment? I know through Shield we can set up alerts based on IP location, but not a specific IP address (at least to my knowledge).
