Hey guys!
Thanks for showing your interest in Dropbox Vault.
To concentrate our efforts on further improving our existing security features and building new capabilities around advanced data protection, weâve made the decision to discontinue Dropbox Vault.
From March 4th Dropbox Vault will no longer be available. If youâre currently using your Vault, that folder will automatically turn into a standard Dropbox folder, that doesnât require a PIN to access. The files in your folder will remain the same.
However, Dropbox is steadfast in its commitment to safeguarding your data.
Our applications and infrastructure are regularly tested for security vulnerabilities, and hardened to enhance security and protect against attacks.
I hope this clarifies!

Hi Kashif,
Thanks for highlighting this, I just checked my 'Vault' folder and I found the same thing - a 'Sharing' icon!! Just to be clear - I did not share that folder or its contents. When Ilooked for some indication of who was sharing it there were no such viewers listed. So why was there a 'sharing' icon? WHO was sharing it? What the heck is going on with Dropbox?
They say they want to 'improve the service' (by ending the 'secure' Vault?!).
Could it get any worse?
