Votiro, the category leader in Content Disarm and Reconstruction (CDR) technology, today announced its integration with Box’s leading Content Cloud to prevent ransomware and other evasive file-borne threats from entering users’ content collaboration applications and environments. Available today, users can seamlessly connect Votiro Cloud to Box to provide an essential layer of security needed to prevent new and unknown threats by sanitizing content before adding it in Box.
Digital content collaboration capabilities have been paramount in the new hybrid work environment, where bad actors are targeting content and data management platforms, primarily through hidden threats in files. Many of these threats leverage advanced obfuscation techniques that can easily evade detection through traditional security technologies. Through this integration with Box, Votiro Cloud can easily be downloaded and deployed within the customers’ environment, and begin immediately eliminating all malware threats.
Preventing Threats without Ruining Files
Instead of scanning for known malware signatures, Votiro Cloud proactively disarms weaponized files before they enter the network and prevents virtually all attacks, ranging from evasive commodity attacks to zero-day attacks, including ransomware. In addition, Votiro’s solution prioritizes secure collaboration, increasing productivity without compromising security. All incoming files to Box Content Cloud from remote employees, contractors, and 3rd party partners are sanitized and reconstructed to preserve the integrity and functionality of the original file, allowing users to collaborate securely.
"Organizations today need products that are inherently secure to support employees working from anywhere, At Box, we continuously strive to improve our integrations with third-party apps so that it's easier than ever for customers to use Box alongside best-in-class solutions. With today's integration with Votiro, we are providing customers with even more options for additional security controls to further minimize the risk of potential incidents.”

Votiro applies Zero Trust principles to a customer’s interactions with digital files, automated file processing, or application-to-application file transfer process. Votiro’s scalability, speed, and depth and breadth of accepted file formats best positions them to help enterprises collaborate with third-parties safely while keeping business flowing. Files are processed at scale for high volume operations and within milliseconds, completely transparent to the end user. The company’s cloud-based, open application programming interface (API), and auto-scaling functionality allows for limitless scalability to seamlessly accommodate surges in file throughput. Votiro Cloud is easy to use and the open API fits into existing file flows seamlessly, including to and from content-rich applications and services like customer-facing portals deployed in public cloud platforms, machine-to-machine transfer to cloud content platforms such as AWS S3, Snowflake, and Box.
“Enterprises no longer have to implicitly trust the users interacting with files in the cloud content platforms, but explicitly ensure safe content at all times. As a result, building out a data protection strategy and investing in technologies that adhere to the Zero Trust model is a great way to ensure secure content collaboration,” said Ravi Srinivasan, CEO at Votiro. “Digital collaboration services, like Box, create amazing efficiencies for businesses and - with the right safeguards - also provide a high level of security. We’re proud to integrate with Box to offer an essential layer of security to protect the content and data that organizations’ exchange on a daily basis without inhibiting user productivity.”
