HYCU at BoxWorks: Transforming Data Protection for Box Users
BoxWorks 2024 was a unique opportunity for businesses and cloud experts to explore new data possibilities, including the latest from HYCU. With more than 200 visitors stopping by our booth, I saw firsthand how Box users are prioritizing and thinking about how to protect their files and data in the leading Intelligent Content Management platform. Here’s what drew attendees’ attention and why a Box backup solution is more critical than ever.
Why Protecting and Recovering Box Data Matters
Data protection isn't just a security measure for Box users—it’s a foundation for operational resilience. With business-critical files in the cloud, the risk of data loss, cyber threats, and compliance challenges requires secure backup and recovery. HYCU addresses these concerns head-on, allowing users to safeguard their Box data without compromising ease of access.
Key Takeaways from BoxWorks 2024
1. Elevated Interest in Data Backup and Recovery
At the HYCU booth, attendees expressed interest in a solution that ensures their data remains secure, meets compliance requirements, and is easily recoverable. Many Box users are eager for data protection solutions beyond basic storage and that provide robust data backup and recovery features.
2. Top Reasons Attendees Found HYCU Compelling
The visitors to our booth shared three core reasons for their interest in Box data protection:
- Enhanced Security: Many expressed concerns over increasing cyber threats, both external attacks and insider threats. HYCU’s solution offers secure ransomware recovery from WORM-enabled backups. This proven approach is a significant way to guarantee access to data in the event of an attack.
- Seamless Integration: HYCU's solution natively integrates with Box, offering users a streamlined experience without disrupting workflows.
- Enhanced Recoverability: HYCU allows you to recover your business-critical data back into Box, or outside of Box in case the Box service is down. Allowing you to continue business as usual.
- Compliance Assurance: Organizations must meet strict data compliance standards. HYCU’s features simplify meeting these requirements, which was a top priority for attendees. With the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), NIS2, and a new wave of backup savvy regulations, it’s more critical than ever to have a strategy in place.

Improved Data Security Features for Box
The team highlighted one of the most exciting announcements leading into BoxWorks with HYCU’s introduction of new data protection capabilities for Box users, aimed at reducing threats to data on Box Intelligent Content Management Platform. This allows users to protect their data against ransomware and accidental deletions confidently.

In addition to Box, HYCU’s platform supports a broad range of popular cloud services, including protection for Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Jira, GitHub, GitLab, and dozens of collaboration and productivity applications. For users managing diverse data ecosystems, this expanded compatibility means a single, unified backup and recovery solution across the entire company technology stack.
Why Box Users Need Comprehensive Data Protection and Backup Services
The Growing Need for Cloud Backup Services
With more organizations relying on cloud solutions, the demand for comprehensive cloud backup services is skyrocketing. Box, Google Drive, SharePoint, Confluence, Dropbox, and Slack users need assurance that their critical files and knowledge will be there when needed.
Okta Sign-In Security and Data Access Controls
Integrating with identity platforms like Okta is another critical aspect of data security. HYCU’s solution allows organizations to leverage Okta and Microsoft Entra ID sign-in protocols to control who can access their backups, ensuring that data remains secure even in complex, multi-user environments. Additionally, HYCU protects the data and configurations inside of Okta Workforce Identity Cloud (WIC) and Microsoft Entra ID.
The Road Ahead for Box Data Protection with HYCU
As cloud usage continues to grow, HYCU remains committed to innovating in the backup and recovery space. For Box users, that means even more robust and scalable protection solutions to keep their data safe, secure, and readily accessible. The BoxWorks event underscored the need for these tools, and HYCU is poised to meet this demand.
