Passwords and expirations for shared links create boundaries around who can access content through shared links and for how long. This gives folder owners complete control over their files and peace of mind that their company information is in the right hands. View-only permissions for shared folderslet team members determine who can view or edit files within a shared folder they’ve created. We’re bringing additional security and control to the heart of where work gets done in Dropbox for Business - shared folders and shared links. Some of these features are available today through our early access program, and others will be coming soon to a Dropbox for Business near you.

We'll be releasing new functionality across three product areas - security and control, collaboration, and platform integrations. Today, we’re excited to share some of the most requested features that will be coming over the next few months. Other options include 1Password and KeePass.Over the past 16 months, we’ve worked hard to make Dropbox for Business better for the 80,000 companies that use it to power their work around the world. While LastPass had its own password reset last year (as a security measure), it’s still well run as a service. LastPass is a pretty good password generator and storage manager. Still, even older accounts can pose a security risk.Īs for passwords, see my earlier posts about which ones to avoid. Then again, I don’t think Last.fm is as popular as it once was, largely in the pre-Spotify era. Unlike Dropbox, the service doesn’t offer (as far as I know) two-factor authentication. The means Last.fm used to encrypt the passwords ( MD5) also isn’t particularly robust or secure by today’s standards.Īgain, it’s advised for Last.fm users to change their passwords. However, they’ve only revealed today how many passwords were stolen: over 43 million. Similar to Dropbox, Last.fm reports that they also had a breach in 2012. The second security violation reported this week comes from music scrobbling service Last.fm.
