There is a current rumor of a leak of over 60 millions accounts details of dropbox users.
It is recommended to change the dropbox password as soon as possible to be on the cautious side.
We know how online marketers are loving the dropbox feature hence this post post to inform about a critical situation. It remains a solid way to transfer files from your computer to your Windows VPS for instance.
Dropbox is currently asking users to reset their passwords following a leak in 2012 as per a public statement this week.
However, some websites have analyzed a few data out of the breach and it sounds as the new encryption system they deployed in 2012 (bcrypt) has been breached.
