#### End-to-end encrypted, scheduled backup of your folders and databases

RedVault Backup Agent backs up the folders and databases you choose, encrypted on
this computer before anything is uploaded, on a schedule you set.

* Folders and files, with restore to any folder
* PostgreSQL and MySQL databases (the client tools are included)
* Restore tests that load a recovered PostgreSQL dump into a throwaway local server
* Needs a RedVault Systems account: <https://www.redvaultsystems.com>

The snap can read and back up files in your home folder and, once you connect the
removable-media interface, on external drives:

```
 sudo snap connect redvault-backup-agent:removable-media
```

Databases are reached over the network (TCP), including on this computer: use
127.0.0.1 or localhost as the host.

Restore into a folder such as Documents or Downloads: restoring directly into the
home folder itself is not possible in this version.
