You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

Is Dropbox a safe haven from ransomware?
1) If my local computer and presumably my local network drive were to be encrypted by a ransomware attack, would my Dropbox files also be encrypted? 2) Or is Dropbox a safe place place for my file...
It seems that if you pay for the Pro version they should provide protection against ransomware encryption.
It does look like the "extended version history" option may cover you in case of ransomware because all versions of files are kept for 1 year without counting toward your quota, but this option obviously adds a lot to the cost.
