**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ravi C. | Cloud Engineer, Information Technology and Services, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 09, 2022

**What do you like best about Box KeySafe?**

Many functionalities which I found best in Box KeySafe are in its capabilities of creating our own customized file-folder hierarchy and seeking out a particular file within seconds with its search provisions. It helps me with maintaining large files in a single place thanks to its reliable & secure platform. The affordability for using its services is excellent, and it's suitable for my organization's file compliance standards.

**What do you dislike about Box KeySafe?**

Box KeySafe gives me the convenience to securely store large quantities of data in a specific way by creating a proper section for each type of file structure. Its facility is tightly managed by access tokens, certificates, encryption keys, and passwords which are superb for maintaining data security in its platform. No dislike with anything related to the services offered by Box KeySafe.

**What problems is Box KeySafe solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Box KeySafe dedicates simplistic and cost-effective control features for our file encryption keys management. We utilize its services while uploading our AWS code libraries, templates, and scripts, which hold customer-centric design and architecture implementations. Each file is encrypted with Box key in our Box platform when it's uploaded, and when it moves to our customer platform, it is further encrypted with our customer-specific key. Since these customer keys are hosted in the AWS platform, the durability and availability are substantially fantastic for our requirements. Both Box key and Customer key are stored in memory and not in any disk to prevent security breaches and enterprise vulnerabilities. We go through its audit for tracking and identification of the keys that are being used for file encryption.
