How safe is Box and how much can I trust it?
Answered
I run an online business and every important file is saved onto the Box drive. Should I make an offline copy of everything on a tangible drive in case anything ever happens to Box or my files? Are any of my files at risk of being deleted? Other than being hacked, am I at risk of losing files ever? What if Box ever shuts down as a company, what happens to my files? Is Box at risk of being hacked?
