In July 2025, Box will disallow FTP connections that use weak CBC-mode ciphers for SSL. This change is to ensure the continued security and integrity of Box and our customers’ use of Box. The affected ciphers are:
-
TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256
-
TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384
-
TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256
-
TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384
We encourage all customers using unencrypted FTP and weak ciphers to upgrade their FTP clients to use stronger SSL encryption ciphers.
