1 UITS strongly recommends using a Box Entrusted Data Account (BEDA) for storing institutional data classified as Restricted in Box. A Box Health Data Account (BHDA) is required if you plan to store data containing protected health information (PHI) regulated by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). Although BDHAs are appropriate for storing PHI (which is classified as Critical), BHDAs are not appropriate for storing other institutional data classified as Critical. Consequently, "Restricted" is listed above as the most sensitive institutional data classification allowed in Box at IU. For more, see Protect sensitive data in Box. If you need help determining the most sensitive institutional data classification allowed on any UITS service, contact the University Information Policy Office (UIPO).

2 While UITS endorses the use of Google Apps and Office 365, they can pose accessibility issues, and can take considerable time for individuals with disabilities to master. Therefore, it is best to offer additional options for completing course requirements.

3 Google Drive File Stream is currently disabled at IU.

4 Box for Office Online automatically saves your file as you work on it. Each auto-save creates a new version and stores it in Box as part of the file's version history. Because IU Box retains only the 100 most recent versions, using Office Online to work on a file for an extended period of time may cause you to unintentionally lose earlier versions of your file due to an excess accumulation of auto-saved versions.

5 Content preview in Box is limited to files 500 MB or smaller, except for video files, which can be up to 3.5 hours long. Also, Box cannot preview Excel sheets that have more than 100 columns or 100,000 rows. For more, see File Types and Fonts Supported in Box Content Preview on the Box Community website.
