Duplicati encrypts every backup on your own machine first, so the storage provider never holds your key

The backup you keep putting off takes one evening, and this one hands the keys to nobody.

Duplicati is a free, open-source backup client that builds encrypted, incremental, compressed backups and sends them to storage you already pay for. Files are processed locally and encrypted with AES-256 before they leave the computer, so Amazon S3, Backblaze B2, Azure, Dropbox, OneDrive, an SFTP server, a NAS, or a plain external drive receives only ciphertext. Version 2.4.0.0, released September 3, 2026, is available for Windows, macOS on Apple silicon, Debian and Ubuntu, Fedora and RedHat, and Docker. The MakeUseOf writer who covered it today tested the part most people skip: they wiped a computer and restored the files onto a different machine.

Mary of Nazareth

Keep and Ponder

The useful work is finished. Keep what is true, ponder what matters, and entrust the rest to God.

Keep

Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
1 Peter 5:7, KJV

Ponder

Put one worry into words, then entrust it to God.

Entrust

Father, receive what troubles me and remind me that I am held in your care. Amen.

A practice shaped by Luke 2:19Guided by the biblical witness of Mary of Nazareth.
