Your Dropbox account has been designed to store some of your most important documents. To better secure your Dropbox account, consider activating two-factor authentication. With this type of authentication, there's a more substantial barrier against would-be hackers by requiring anyone who attempts to access your account have both your password and access to your mobile devices. Here's how to set it up.
How to set up two-factor authentication for Dropbox
