<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>Hello,<br>I'm gigi, IT student.<br>I am interested in using Borg as a backup system, so I am documenting myself about the features it has.<br></div>I
am concerned about security and privacy, encryption is a must. Also
because probably I'll need to backup a lot of machines I need
deduplication and (eventually) compression.<br></div><div>I wondered how Borg could handle deduplication and encryption together, so I asked <a href="https://superuser.com/questions/1230895/how-borg-backup-handle-data-deduplication-and-ecryption#1230925" target="_blank">this</a> question on <a href="http://superuser.com" target="_blank">superuser.com</a> forum. <br>Could you please confirm that the answer is correct ?<br></div></div><div>Can you provide a more detailed explaination of how Borg handles this kind of situation ?<br></div><div>I know that the documentation already states the encryption is done client side, but could you confirm it ?<br></div><div>I will for sure test the cited features, but your explainations could help me a lot.<br></div><div>Thanks!<br></div><div>Have a nice day,<br><br></div>gigi canuto<br></div>
