The main goal of Borg is to provide an efficient and secure way to
|
|
|
|
backup data. The data deduplication technique used makes Borg suitable
|
|
|
|
for daily backups since only changes are stored. The authenticated
|
|
|
|
encryption technique makes it suitable for backups to not fully trusted
|
|
|
|
targets.
