Dropbox Breech. Who's Next


Hackers Unauthorizedly Accessed 130 GitHub Source Code Repositories

File hosting service Dropbox on Tuesday disclosed that it was the victim of a phishing campaign that allowed unidentified threat actors to gain unauthorized access to 130 of its source code repositories on GitHub.
"These repositories included our own copies of third-party libraries slightly modified for use by Dropbox, internal prototypes, and some tools and configuration files used by the security team," the company revealed in an advisory.

The breach resulted in the access of some API keys used by Dropbox developers as well as "a few thousand names and email addresses belonging to Dropbox employees, current and past customers, sales leads, and vendors."

We can certainly go on how they were breeched but the point is they were compromised without any point-to-point encryption via the document repository. Docuhide doesn’t band aide security by insisting that you password protect your documents, security is imposed from the onset of using Docuhide either by importing into Docuhide or creating inside of Docuhide. Applying passwords is old school.
