[Solution] Perfect for HR-related services! Cloud content management "Box" ~ What are the abundant functions that can securely utilize personal information? ~

Against the backdrop of labor shortages and work style reforms, the human resource-related service industry continues to perform well. As the number of companies recording record high profits is increasing, each company faces challenges such as "secure management of personal information such as resumes," "development of an environment that is easy for applicants to use," and "matching between companies and applicants." It is

Here, we will introduce how to use the cloud-based content management platform "Box" developed for companies to solve the problems faced by companies related to human resources services.

“Box” is used by 90,000 companies* worldwide. Spread to customers of human resources related services

"Box" is a service that securely stores various data in the cloud with unlimited capacity and enables safe sharing. Approximately 90,000 companies worldwide*, more than 4,500 companies in Japan*is used for Major companies and school corporations, which often use temporary staffing and recruitment, are also introducing it.

7 levels of access control. Protect personal information with various security functions

One of the attractions of "Box" is its strong security. We comply with many international third-party security certifications, such as the international standard for information security management systems "ISO27001" and the security standard "FedRAMP" for US government agencies to procure cloud services. Various security functions such as IP address restrictions, two-factor authentication, and encryption are implemented, and data can be stored safely.

Depending on your company's security policy, you can protect your personal information at different levels.

Below is an example.

(1) "Can be viewed but not downloaded" in the preview function. Supports over 130 extensions

Data stored in "Box" can be securely shared with simple operations. The "preview function", which allows you to share files without downloading them, supports more than 130 types of typical file formats. With 7 levels of fine-grained access control, you can easily control editing and printing rights, which is far more secure than email and physical media. You can let people outside your company create free Box accounts and control access just like your internal users. Since almost all operations are saved as a log, you can also check the access status of the sharing partner (collaborator) in detail.

(2) Deterrence of fraud with "digital watermarking". Forced display of access date and time and user

Security can be enhanced with the optional "digital watermarking function". This is a function that forcibly displays the "user" who accessed the file and the "access date and time" on the file. Even if an attempt is made to illegally take personal information out of the system, "who" and "when" accesses can be seen at a glance.

(3) Cooperation with the encryption solution "Final-Code". File protection after download

In cooperation with the encryption solution "Final-Code", files can continue to be protected even after they have been downloaded from "Box".

For example, when an interview is outsourced, access rights on Box are applied to the files downloaded to the outsourcee's computer or server. Unauthorized people cannot view or edit the downloaded file even if they get it.

Even after downloading, changing access rights in Box will be reflected in real time. If you delete the access authority after the work is completed, the resume data remaining at the contractor will not be viewable from that moment.

You can achieve a much higher level of personal information protection just by manipulating the access rights of "Box".

Works with over 140* apps. Speeding up contracts with electronic signatures, AI utilization for matching

In addition, it can be linked with more than 140 * various applications provided by partner companies of "Box". For example, by linking with an electronic seal/electronic signature solution, you can speed up contracting and promote paperless operations.

Since API linkage with in-house developed applications is also possible, linkage with matching applications equipped with AI (artificial intelligence) is also possible. By utilizing a variety of applications centered on Box, convenience and safety can be further enhanced.

New service "Box Platform" started in April 2019. Easily develop applications for applicants

The Box Platform, which was just launched in Japan in April 2019, can also be used to streamline operations and expand services for applicants. "Box Platform" is a pay-as-you-go usage model that accesses "Box" through a custom application. In the United States, it is used for BtoC services such as "loan application" and "insurance quotation", and there are many successful cases.

A development kit is provided, and you can quickly develop applications that use the basic functions of the secure and highly functional "Box" by combining parts and logic.

For example, we have developed an application that automatically creates a resume with simple input from a smartphone. You can expect the effect of increasing the number of opportunities to use and attracting applicants. By linking with the application "CanDay Print" that allows you to print files on "Box" at convenience stores, even those who do not have a printer at home can print their resumes at convenience stores nationwide.

With the Box Platform, you can quickly turn your ideas into reality. You can use it properly with the core service of "Box" and upgrade your business with a variety of uses.
