Box, Inc. (NYSE: BOX), the leading Content Cloud, today announced that the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts (AOUSC) has selected Box to power secure cloud content management and collaboration for the Defender Services Office (DSO).

With the purchase of Box, DSO continues to be able to:

• Provide a secure collaboration space for litigation when sharing confidential content
• Support HR Teams for the on and off-boarding of interns, externs and full-time employees
• Digitize and automate processes, leveraging Box as the central Content Cloud integrating with other existing technology platforms
• Leverage Box e-signature, security, data classification, and workflow capabilities to secure and streamline critical processes

“Box is leading the way for government agencies to leverage technology that enables enhanced engagement with stakeholders and improves organizational outcomes,” said Aaron Levie, CEO and co-founder at Box. “Powered by Box’s cloud and modernization strategy, defenders can now streamline their mission delivery, while ensuring the privacy and security of sensitive data.”

Box is Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) Moderate Authorized and received Department of Defense SRG Impact Level 4 Authorization by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA).
