- cperciva 18y agoTarsnap is a backup service -- you pay to store your backups on it. And thanks for replying; knowing what people find unclear will make my life much easier when I write all the text for the tarsnap website. :-)
- PStamatiou 18y agoyeah i gotcha. when I first heard about it I wasn't sure if it was more a security tool or a backup tool, and/or how it compared to my current S3 setup.
- cperciva 18y agoTarsnap is both a security tool and a backup tool. It's a tool for secure backups; and good backups, as a risk mitigation tool, are an important part of security.
