Useful backup features and methods

Encrypt files before backup

Encrypt and compress files before backing up or synchronizing them. This effectively prevents unauthorized access and provides an extra layer of protection.

backup multiple version

The more versions you back up reduces the risk of data loss. Hybrid Backup Sync supports multi-version backup to cloud storage and remote NAS and allows setting version limits and retention time.

Backup to multiple destinations

When the local NAS starts a backup job, a remote NAS can automatically start secondary backup, sync, or restore jobs. All you need is to set the backup process on each NAS, then multiple NAS can automatically complete all job flows.

Note: The automated cross-NAS backup is available from Hybrid Backup Sync version 14.
