More e-mail addresses stolen

DropBox - kitebox

According to an article in Digital Trends, Dropbox leaked an unknown number of passwords. The interesting part here is that they claim an attacker had access to an employee’s account where a list of e-mail addresses was found. Dropbox is not making the news for the first time and this time they promise tougher security measures.

Unfortunately, I do not think tougher security measures they propose would alleviate the problem of employees keeping lists of accounts in their dropboxes.
