End to End Encryption Coming?

Thanks.

That's what I thought.

Perhaps Apple's "Advanced Data Protection" will help DB roll out this feature to all their users.

I am a BoxCryptor customer that has a valid paid subscription that ends very shortly and can't be renewed due to this aquisition.  I still want the same features that BoxCryptor offered as far as end to end encryption and should be available to all paid users, but even if it's only available to "business" accounts, I can't find any information about what (business) plan is required along with whatever the prices would be.  It would be helpful if someone could give me that information before my BoxCryptor subscription expires in less than 14 days.

Hey evensenm, just wanted to share an update on this.

So, we plan to embed Boxcryptor’s zero-knowledge encryption capabilities natively within Dropbox for Business users on our paid plans to use across all file supported types on Dropbox.

We’re working to introduce this functionality to our Business customers as soon as possible. 

We are still finalizing the pricing and will share more information as soon as possible.

Same thing with me/us. Have been asking Dropbox support serveral times since autumn. Due to lots of data to be stored securly (end2end encrypted), our Boxcryptor licences ending and Dropbox still having no product to offer even for business customers, I started to evaluate tresorit for our team. It's a pitty since we have had a couple of really good years together, Dropbox, Boxcryptor and us. 😉

I have a trial of Dropbox Plus, but with my trial period being close to expiring, and my BoxCryptor account expiring in 3 days, I have decided to cancel my trial, and don't plan on resubscribing until I get more information about the plans that will include end-to-end encryption, and what the prices would be.

Another cloud storage option is MEGA which offers 20GB of storage for its free users (I have 50GB of storage because that's what free accounts used to get, and I've been grandfathered in), and offers paid accounts as well.  All of the plans (including free users) have end-to-end encryption.  I would like to subscribe to a plan with Dropbox that has end-to-end encryption, otherwise I will have to rely on MEGA instead.

any news regarding the old end to end boxcryptor functionality within Dropbox?

thanks

My last support contact with Dropbox on this matter was three weeks ago. There was no date available yet for an end-to-end encryption offer. In the meantime, our Boxcryptor licences have expired and we therefore left Dropbox Business in favour of Tresorit and have had very good experiences there so far. For private file encryption with various cloud services (e.g. OneDrive), my experiments with Cryptomator (open source) were very promising. I will test Dropbox with a free account and Cryptormator when I get the chance. Since we left Dropbox with our business data, however, this is no longer a hurry for me.

Hi Don Martin, 

we are on track with the native integration of E2EE and are planning to onboard first early access customers within this year. 

I will keep you updated in this forum. 

Thanks for your patience!
