Hi, Rich,
Thanks very much for your help!
I was hoping that there might be some more technically-detailed statement available from Dropbox such as "we do penetration testing of all of our server. sites in accordance with XYZ standard every X days (or continuously, or whatever). Identified vulnerabilities are ranked as to their risk and resolved as soon as possible".
What you provided is probably as good as it's going to get for a small user like me. I'm very happy with Dropbox and have been a customer for a long time, and having to answer a question like this for a customer's IT survey is pretty unusual.
Thanks again!
