Some questions that weren't answered in the readme:
- What type of encryption is used exactly? Is it a simple encfs which leaks some meta information or is a container created or something else?
- Is it a full snapshop backup or does it work incrementally?
- GRBurst 4y agoStill a thumbs up because all backup solutions I and a lot of my friends are aware don't cover most use cases and I am happy to see people are trying to fill some of those gaps
- mrich 4y agoIt's aes256 using openssl: https://github.com/mrichtarsky/glacier_deep_archive_backup/blob/main/impl/build_archive.sh https://github.com/mrichtarsky/glacier_deep_archive_backup/b... Does that leak information you would be concerned about? It's always a full backup.
- GRBurst 4y agoNope. There are some concerns about using openssl for file encryption and it is generally good to be very specific about the encryption instead of using default parameters. I don't necessary share all the concerns, but it might be worth knowing them, e.g. https://security.stackexchange.com/a/182281 https://security.stackexchange.com/a/182281
- mrich 4y agoThanks for the pointer. gpg is the better option then, I've switched to it.
