The Dropbox Family plan is intended for family members to share a quota pool between all members, and a Family room is a shared folder that all members have access to.
However, regarding security purposes, there is little extra security provided when compared to a personal account in general.
For instance, members of the family can easily leave the family without any input from the family manager, whereas in a Dropbox Business team, only the team admin can delete team members. Additionally, family members can share files and folders with non-members, however in a Dropbox Business team, this can be restricted to only team members. There are a lot of other features available on a Business plan which can enhance security when compared to the Family plan
