Hey #InfoSec what backup software for desktop/laptop would you suggest? Definitely FLOSS, preferably cross-platform (if not, indicate which platform it works on).

Thanks!

@rysiek Since you insist it be FLOSS and cross-platform, only one comes to mind: rsync

Personally, I use BackBlaze because I want my backups offsite in case my house burns down.

@gme @rysiek borgbackup is also really good (works on Windows too, I think)

@kevin @rysiek So looks like it's rsync + data deduplication + rsync :-) It still suffers from the problem that unless you consciously transmit your backups off site they're going to be local.
