# Restic Backup
|
|
|
|
A script for executing [restic backups](https://www.rnz.co.nz/national/programmes/ninetonoon/audio/2018719138/helter-smelter-what-s-behind-the-tiwai-point-review) - see the [project repo](https://github.com/restic/restic) onto a remote (or local) server.

|
Backups are incremental, and stored encrypted on the backup server. You must have the password for each backup to view the content. This script stores 7 daily, 5 weekly, 12 monthly, and 7 yearly snapshots. It automatically cleans up after itself.

This solution is far more efficient and faster than our past solution, Rdiff Backup (which uses rsync)...
