What the data shows
Computed from every record, as of 2026-10.
- Dropbox reported 21 incidents in the last 12 months against 24 in the 12 months before: down 12%.
- 4 of the last 21 were marked major or critical, which is 19%.
- More reported incidents can mean more failures, more products or more honest reporting. These numbers cannot separate them.

Limitations
- Incidents are self-reported, so a company that reports more honestly can look worse.
- New products add new ways to have an incident, so counts can rise without reliability getting worse.
