What’s new at Dropbox

From AI-powered universal search to expanded encryption features, we’re introducing new tools and features to help users look up—and lock down—exactly what they need, fast.

AI-powered universal search

Find anything. Protect everything.

Meet Dash for Business—the platform that combines universal search and content access control, so teams can effortlessly find, organize, share, and secure work. Now teams can:

  • Find anything fast—within and beyond Dropbox—thanks to universal search across connected apps
  • Uncover deeper insights via follow-up questions, answers, and related content links based on the original search query
  • Group files, apps, links, and more into smart collections, then share them with clients and colleagues with a single click 
  • View and manage access permissions across major content platforms, and find and prevent unwanted content sharing

Secure sharing

Share encrypted folders between companies

End-to-end encryption gives businesses ‌sole control over how their data is secured. Now you can easily and safely share encrypted folders with external teams that have encrypted folders enabled. Teams can feel confident knowing their sensitive and confidential data is fully protected and only accessible by the intended recipients at the outside company.
