It is my understanding that files are encrypted both in transit and at rest on Dropbox’s servers (correct me if I am wrong), BUT the encryption is with Dropbox’s keys which means that they can be subject to data breaches. However, these services do not sync all of the MacOS metadata, and I need things like Finder tag syncing for my workflows.ĭropbox has the best, as far as I can tell, overall functionality.

I have tried using services like that provide a Dropbox-like experience but with zero-knowledge encryption, eg they do NOT have the keys to decrypt your files and so cannot supply them to any third party, and more importantly in the event of a data breach, they files cannot be decrypted by anyone else. However, I have a lot of files syncing between computers that contains information that should not be spread “wild” on the internet.) (BTW: Yes, I actually store that kind of stuff in 1Password. I was wondering how folks felt about storing data in Dropbox that might contain information such as bank account numbers, social security numbers, or any other form of sensitive information. I don’t really know what category this goes into.
