Our team is thinking about activating 2FA for all users.  How often will we need to authenticate ie every time we log into our PCs or every time we access a file on box drive?

Hi Robert, 

Welcome to the Box Community, I'm happy to help!

Users will be prompted for 2 factor authentication when they are logging in to unknown browser or to a machine or any device that Box hasn't registered on the account.

To known more about configuring 2 FA for your account, please take a look at this article: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044195853-Configuring-Two-Step-Login-Verification
