Cobian Backup 7

Cobian Backup is a multi-threaded program that can be used to schedule and backup your files and directories from their original location to other directories / drives in the same computer or other computer in your network. FTP backup is also supported in both directions (download and upload). The utility exists in two different versions: application and service. The program uses very few resources and can be running on the background on your system, checking your backup schedule and executing your backups when necessary. Cobian Backup is not an usual backup application: it only copies your files and folders in original or compressed mode to other destination, creating a security copy as a result. This fantastic piece of software can be better described as a "Scheduler for security copies" or even the elite backup utility. Cobian supports several methods of compression and strong encryption.

• The application can be used as a command line utility. No separate command line program is needed
• The interprocess communication is done using TCP/IP. This allows a better communication between the program parts AND the program can be administrated from another machine anywhere in the world.
• Strong encryption: Supported methods are Blowfish (128 bit), Rijndael (128 bit) and DES (64 bit)
• An open plug-in architecture to allow the program's enhancement
• The program can now remind you if you have missed backups
• Limit the speed of your FTP transfers
• Zip64 for zip files larger than 2 GB
• Compressed files can now be split
• Designed and written from scratch
