BACK UP SQL TO BOX

With just a few clicks you can back up your Microsoft SQL Server databases to Box, a popular and well-supported data storage service.

Box has built its reputation as a secure Content Cloud, providing enterprise-grade security and content management for businesses in many industries. For organizations that have standardized on Box for their document storage and collaboration, SQL Backup Master provides a seamless integration for protecting their critical SQL Server data within the same trusted environment.

Connecting to your Box account is simple and secure. We use the industry-standard OAuth 2.0 protocol, which means you authorize access directly with Box. When you click "Authorize Now", you are taken to the official Box login page to grant permissions. This method ensures that your Box account password is never shared with, or stored by, our application, adhering to modern security best practices.

For businesses that rely on Box, the benefits of using it as a backup destination include:

• Centralized Management: Store your SQL database backups alongside other critical business documents, simplifying your data governance and IT oversight.
• Advanced Security: Leverage Box's robust security features, including granular user permissions and strong compliance certifications.
• Simplified Workflow: No need to introduce a new storage vendor. Keep your disaster recovery assets within the platform your team already knows and uses daily.

Once connected, you can specify a folder path for your backups and configure a schedule for full automation. SQL Backup Master will then handle all the work of creating, compressing, and uploading your database backups securely to your Box account.
