Can an employer see if I am copying the files?
3 answers. If your company has specially installed software that monitors the reading of files from the server, the first stage (copying to a work laptop) will be detected, but subsequent actions on your laptop will not. There is no way to avoid it. If they don’t have monitoring software installed, they won’t know.
Can you tell if the file was copied?
You can determine whether certain files have been backed up or not. Right click on the folder or file that you fear has been copied, go to Properties, you will get information such as creation, modification and date and time of access. The recipient changes each time the file is opened or copied without opening.

It depends on the security of your company’s computers. But the short answer is yes. A simple usage log can see that a USB stick has been plugged in and if they track file access, that can be tracked as well.
Can my employer see if I copy files to Dropbox?
Do it from home, they won’t find out. Do this at work on a corporate computer and your internet connection will probably log all internet server connections and transfers. Everybody looks at these logs, usually not. Unless they have reason to believe that something serious is going on.
