Deduplicating Full/Incremental/Differential backup with AES-256 encryption

A Linux alternative to Macrium Reflect. Disclaimer: Independent open-source project, not affiliated with or endorsed by Paramount Software UK Ltd.

FEATURES (100% real chunked repository, zero mock data): • Full / Incremental / Differential File-Tree Backup Engine: content-chunked (64 KiB or 256 KiB) deduplicating repository (chunks/ + JSON manifests) with SHA-256 chunk hashes, zlib/lzma compression, and optional AES-256-CTR

  • HMAC-SHA256 authenticated encryption verified against NIST FIPS-197, SP 800-38A, and IEEE 1619 test vectors. • Snapshot Browser, Integrity Verify & Point-in-Time Restore: browse any backup generation, verify every chunk hash and decryption tag, and restore individual files or the full tree with SHA-256 verification. • Backup Definitions, Retention Policy & SQLite Run Log: save/load JSON backup definitions, prune old Full sets + dependents with real orphan chunk garbage collection, and inspect persistent SQLite run history.

Honest Linux Scope: Live Linux backup reads accessible files directly while running rather than taking Windows VSS volume shadow snapshots. Unreadable files without sufficient permissions are logged cleanly.
