We used DLP Synmantec Solution and it detected that outlook seemed to upload some file to weird URL which is https://upload.box.com. Symantec DLP Rule detected it when outlook client upload some files to somewhere.

From the DLP log, I found below pattern log.

Target URL : https://upload.box.com/test.txt.  Even though we don't use box.com solution and we used another 3rd party outlook add-in for large attachment handling, why Symantec DLP detect this  URL https://upload.box.com 

Can I ask what upload.box.com is?

Thanks for update.

One of our users uploaded "test.txt" via 3rd party attachment-addin solution in outlook desktop, not via box.com and symantec DLP detected it as https://upload.box.com/test.txt for target path and https://upload.box.com as recipient
