Dropbox

[NotAllThere]

The CEO of one of my client's divisions has suggested that dropbox be used to distribute confidential information. Is this insane - might as well publish direct to wikileaks - or is it really secure and robust?

Would not put anything even slightly sensitive in a system like dropbox. The files must reside one their servers somewhere and are totally out of your organistation's control and you don't have a clue who could snoop on them IMO.

Intelligence is as intelligence does.
So people at the top with their large bonuses, huge salaries and sinecure positions laugh at the "intelligent" drones they employ for 60K.

I love dropbox, but don't have anything in there that is sensitive, if I do I make sure word documents are password protected

Amazon S3's JungleDisk has true AES encryption. Dropbox is for girls.

Computer connected to network is already non-secure.
