Dropbox usernames and passwords were compromised via third-party Web sites. As a result,Dropbox said it would work on adding more security features to help keep accounts safe.to access the Dropbox Web site or service, you'll need to enter your current password and a security code using this new method. This code can be sent to you via SMS or be generated by a mobile authenticator app.
let's go....
Log in to your Dropbox account from a Web browser.
Click on the user menu(in the top-right corner).
click on Settings & go to the Security tab.
click the "change" link next to "Two-step verification."
After entering your password, you'll be prompted to pick a method of receiving authentication codes in the future.
choose SMS as your method of receiving codes & provide your mobile number.
Enter the six-digit code from SMS or the authenticator app into the Web site.
Dropbox will now show you a 16-digit code to be used in case you lose your device.(Write this down or take a screenshot and keep the emergency backup code in a safe, handy place if you need to change the phone number your regular codes are sent to)
