The fundamentals are still the same, everything is encrypted with your master password before being sent to 1Password's cloud. So even if someone infiltrates 1Password's storage, all they get is encrypted files, same with Dropbox.


If that’s true, than the point I made about better security with Dropbox is moot.

As an end user, it’s abundantly clear that all encryption/decryption is done locally when using the Dropbox integration since you can see the files directly in your Dropbox. I guess I didn’t make the same assumption about the 1pass cloud service for some reason.
