Use Encryption; File Revision - SimpleTech FV-U35/250 User Manual

Use Encryption

Activity: Backup operations
Settings: Disabled (default)
Enabled
Use Encryption lets you encrypt backup files against unauthorized use. For maximum
protection, StorageSync uses the
algorithm to encrypt files. Enabling this setting allows you to specify the encryption key
length. You can choose key lengths of 128, 192, and 256 bits. When this setting is enabled,
the same password used to encrypt backup files will be required when restoring the files. For
more information about this process, refer to "Restoring Encrypted Backup Files" on page 54.
If you try to open an encrypted file outside of StorageSync (for example, by using
!
Windows Explorer), the information in the file is rendered unintelligible.

File Revision

Activity: Backup operations
Settings: Disabled (default)
Enabled
File Revision lets you backup multiple versions (or "revisions") of the same file. If you
enable this option, you can save up to 20 revisions of the same file. When you restore a file
that has been backed up using the file revision option, StorageSync lets you select the
particular file you want to restore.
By default, File Revision is disabled. To use it, you must upgrade to the Professional Edition.
If you backup more than 20 revisions of a file, StorageSync automatically deletes
the file with the oldest revision to make room for the file with the newest revision.
