If the cask downloads directly from dropbox I would trust it. It's up to you who you feel comfortable trusting. If you have internal company stuff you don't want out keep it on a private intranet. This is the type of stuff Richard Stallman has talked about for years. It's a real problem but I'm afraid nobody listens.

This is why I use mega.co.nz for all the sensitive files of my business. Google and Dropbox get the files that I wouldn't mind if they were on a bulletin board. But this is not a common practice, and the risks aren't well-known by users.
