BorgBackup

Deduplicating archiver with compression and encryption

About BorgBackup

A deduplicating backup program that stores space-efficient encrypted archives, supports compression and off-site repositories, and is designed for daily backups of servers and workstations over SSH. Its open development model means documentation, plugins and community support are publicly available, and organisations can contribute fixes upstream instead of waiting on a vendor roadmap. For many teams it becomes long-lived infrastructure: simple to back up, straightforward to automate and independent of per-seat pricing as usage grows steadily.
