Hi
Welcome to Box Community and we’re glad to assist!
Upon checking, it shows that the two-factor authentication is still disabled in your Box account. In order to fully access the shared contents, please set up your Multi-Factor Authentication.
You can enable only one of authenticator app, email, or SMS for 2-factor authentication, and only if your organization does not use single sign-on (SSO) for authentication. If it does, the 2-Step Verification section is not visible in your account settings.
To enable authentication app multi-factor authentication for your individual account:
To enable email multi-factor authentication for your individual account:
After setting up MFA with your email, you're notified that email MFA is required the next time you login.
To enable SMS multi-factor authentication for your individual account:
Note
Your Box administrator may not allow SMS as an authentication method. If so, this option will not be available to you.
Hope it helps! Please let us know if you need additional help.
