FAQPage Schema

How do I automate encrypted off-site backups for live data?▼

Automated encrypted off-site backup for live data is achieved through daily snapshots that apply AES-256-GCM encryption before pushing the files to a private GitHub repository for secure storage.

Can I restore backup data from a specific date to a new machine?▼

Restoring backup data from a specific date to a new machine is supported by executing the restore command with your specified date to verify and recover the encrypted snapshots.

Does this backup process use AES-256-GCM encryption for GitHub storage?▼

The backup process uses AES-256-GCM encryption to secure your data before storing it in a private GitHub repository, ensuring versioned and protected off-site snapshots.

What is the best way to secure board, guard, config, and vault data?▼

Securing board, guard, config, and vault data is best handled by taking automated daily snapshots that encrypt the live data and push it to a private GitHub repository.

How do I verify a backup restoration after a data loss incident?▼

Verifying a backup restoration after a data loss incident involves running the restore command with a specific date to confirm the encrypted snapshots are successfully recovered on your machine.
