you have 2 options, encrypt it before you share it. use pgp for example. or not to use it.
To be fair it is a 3rd party company and it is their business to be trustworthy. but it really depends on how trusting you are of a 3rd party company.

Hi,

Someone wants me to share some confidential information by uploading documents to his Drop Box account.  My gut tells me this is not a secure was to transfer confidential information.



Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance!
