and initialize your Vagrant project with `vagrant init hashicorp/bionic64`.
Or, if you already have a Vagrant project created, modify the Vagrantfile
to use the box: `config.vm.box = "hashicorp/bionic64"`

it's important to keep in mind whose box you're using. Here
are some things to note when you're choosing a box:
- __The username of the user__. If it's `bento` or `canonical`, you can likely
trust the box more than an anonymous user
- __The username of the user__. If it's `bento` or `ubuntu`, you can likely
trust the box more than an anonymous user.
- __The number of downloads of the box__. Heavily downloaded boxes
are likely vetted more often by other members of the community. HashiCorp
responds to reports of malicious software distributed via Vagrant Cloud
and takes down boxes
- __The latest release date__. More up-to-date boxes contain up-to-date
software
by disabling and/or removing boxes. If you find a box which includes
malicious software, please report it to: <a href="mailto:support+vagrantcloud@hashicorp.com">support+vagrantcloud@hashicorp.com</a>.
- __The latest release date__. Boxes which are updated periodically or which
have recent release dates will generally contain more up-to-date software.
- __Availability of the box download__. Vagrant Cloud periodically checks if a box
is publicly accessible. You can see this information on the box
page next to the provider

accessible. You can see this information on the box page next to the provider.
