Securing your data is our top priority!

Our instance of Box is different from that of campus because our's is HIPAA-compliant. Because of our added protections, you'll be required to take the Box 100 training course to have external collaboration enabled on your account. You'll only need to take it once but it is required to collaborate with anyone outside of UCLA Health.
