Better Together for Enterprise and Agency Security

As enterprises and public-sector agencies increasingly rely on email to exchange sensitive and mission-critical content, the risks associated with traditional email systems have never been higher. IBM has reported (2025 Cost of a Data Breach Report) that the average cost of a data breach is now in excess of $5m (USD) and rising. From attachment weaponization to compliance violations, organizations now need intelligent, proactive solutions that reduce risk without compromising productivity.

That’s why Box and mxHERO are proud to be better together, delivering enhanced security, compliance, and automation when mxHERO is integrated with Box's Intelligent Content Cloud and Box Shield.

🔐 Extend the Power of Box Shield to Email Systems

When deployed, mxHERO Mail2Cloud seamlessly integrates with enterprise and agency email systems - intercepting inbound, outbound, and archived email content and routing it into Box’s secure, policy-enforced intelligent content cloud.

Here’s how Box Shield gets extended with mxHERO:

✅ Inbound Email: Safe by Default

Email attachments are a leading threat vector. mxHERO intercepts inbound email and automatically stores attachments in Box. This:

• Reduces the risk of attachment weaponization
• Ensures content is protected by Box Shield’s file-level security policies
• Leverages Safe File Previews to enable secure viewing without blind file openings
   

✅ Outbound Email: Smart Data Loss Prevention (DLP)

With mxHERO, outbound emails can be intelligently monitored for:

• Sensitive IP, PII, CUI, or PHI
• Auto-detection of sensitive content can trigger quarantine or approval workflows
• Complements existing DLP strategies by embedding Box Shield into outbound communication workflows
   

✅ Legacy Email Archives: Secure the Past

Historical, at-rest email from legacy archives can be automatically ingested into Box via mxHERO automation, bringing older content under Box Shield’s protection and compliance policies, unlocking long-term value from unstructured data.

💡 Why This Matters

With mxHERO + Box Shield, organizations gain:

• Stronger security posture across email communications
• Automated compliance enforcement for regulated industries
• Improved data governance with centralized content storage
• A launchpad for AI-powered workflow automation on clean, secure data
• Reduced storage and infrastructure costs by consolidating into the cloud
   

Box content becomes not only more secure, but more valuable, a structured asset ready for workflow automation, improved insights, and Agentic AI.

🤝 Better Together

In today’s evolving threat landscape, extending Box Shield beyond the Box interface is critical. By partnering with mxHERO, organizations can secure more of their unstructured data, achieve next-level compliance, and unlock the full potential of Box's Intelligent Content Cloud.

With mxHERO, Box Shield becomes a tech stack-wide force multiplier.
