About
Restic is a modern, open-source backup program that supports multiple platforms (Linux, BSD, Mac, Windows) and a wide range of storage backends. It transfers only changed data, encrypts everything cryptographically, and runs as a single executable with no server required. The project is freely available under the BSD 2-Clause License.
Problem
Users need a simple, secure, and verifiable way to back up files across multiple platforms and storage services without complex setup.
For
developers, sysadmins, and individuals who need reliable, secure file backups
How it works
Restic runs as a single executable that deduplicates and encrypts file data before transferring only changed chunks to the configured storage backend.
