While I am a BIG FAN of Box ( especially as opposed to Dropbox) as a means
of making content more universally available to an appropriate audience,
especially in a commercial environment because it DOES support nested
levels of security, I'm wondering if the term "classified information" is
being properly used here.
Thinking about what Columbia Records does, I'm sure they have a lot of
sensitive, confidential and other levels of information requiring
protection... but classified??
If it's TRULY classified... then I wouldn't think ANY level of commercial
"public cloud" service provider would have sufficient security or
encryption to protect it.
