BorgBackup
Deduplicating archiver with compression and authenticated encryption
BorgBackup (Borg) is an open-source backup tool that provides space-efficient, deduplicated storage with secure authenticated encryption. It supports multiple compression algorithms and allows backups to be mounted via FUSE. It runs on Linux, macOS, BSD, and other platforms.
Borg deduplicates data at the chunk level, compresses it with your chosen algorithm, and encrypts it with authenticated encryption before storing it in an archive that can be mounted via FUSE.
