Comment Re:An insecure HOLE straight to the desktop (Score 1) 445
As someone who has been responsible for medium sized infrastructures – © 500 desktops - , as well as enterprise wide security, I will say I explicitly deny dropbox for all users. It’s a huge security hole. Without the ability to control, monitor, secure and most importantly log, it will never make it in the corporate environment.
Good. Yet in the real world of corporate environments people use dropbox (and similar things, google drive etc) all the time, because it does something that corporate IT does not do.
It's all very well saying "it's rubbish". Provide an alternative. Windows file shares on a high-fenced intranet just doesn't work when people need to get access to that document from their phone in the back of a taxi in Tajikistan.
