Borg
Deduplicating backup with compression and encryption. Efficient, secure, incremental backups for servers and desktops.
About Borg
Borg (BorgBackup) is a deduplicating, compressing, and encrypting backup program. It identifies duplicate data blocks across all your backups and stores each unique block only once, dramatically reducing storage requirements for incremental backups.
Borg supports authenticated encryption (AES-256), compression (lz4, zstd), append-only mode for ransomware protection, remote backups via SSH, and mountable archives for browsing backed-up files as a filesystem.
Key Features
- Deduplication: identical data stored only once across all backups
- Authenticated encryption with AES-256
- Append-only mode for ransomware protection
- Mountable archives for browsing backups as filesystem
