The move on hosted services like Dropbox storage site raises questions about what cloud users can and should do to keep their information and data secure and compliant.
Cloud security drew attention in 2012 with Dropbox's admission that usernames and passwords stolen from other websites had been used to sign into a small number of its accounts.
A Dropbox employee had used the same password for all his accounts, including his work account with access to sensitive data . When that password was stolen elsewhere, the attacker discovered
that it could be used against Dropbox .
