Box Cloud File Storage

All files stored on Tulane's local file server (Isilon) must be migrated to Box by January 31, 2022. 

Tulane leadership is relocating our data center from New Orleans to an out-of-state location in preparation for 2022 hurricane season. If your department is using Tulane's on premise local server (Isilon) to store Tulane files, you must request a free department Box account and migrate your files to Box before the end of the year. If you are an individual storing files on our servers, please migrate your files to your free Tulane Box account. Questions? Contact the IT Services Desk, help@tulane.edu or submit a service ticket. 

What is Box?

Box online storage is like a hard drive in the cloud. Store documents and files in Box and then access them anywhere, anytime, from any device.  Box also can sync files from your local hard disk automatically providing a backup that will always be available from other computers and devices. All Tulane faculty and staff have access to unlimited storage on Box and can view and access their content anywhere, anytime, on any device.

Who has access?

All Tulane faculty, staff and students have access to a Tulane Box account. 

HIPAA Protected Data

Tulane now has a HIPAA Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with Box cloud storage that allows HIPAA protected data to be stored on Box.
