Arq Backup – Cloud Backup Software For Mac OS 7.5.7

Arq is a cloud backup for Mac. It securely backs up your files to your cloud account or NAS. Arq Backup saves many copies of the files — a backup history. So, if you find a file has been lost or mistakenly erased, you will restore the previous version. Back up external hard discs, NAS archives, or something else you want.

Arq is a Mac app that can help you streamline the data upload process, once you figured out where you want to backup the data. The utility can work with Amazon servers, S3 compatible services (Google, DreamHost, GreenQloud, and others), or personal SFTP servers.

Installation and Setup

To link to your online storage account or your server, you must use the Arq assistant. You must pick the service you wish to use from a drop-down menu and then include your credentials. Overall, the procedure is pretty straightforward.

The following move is to decide which files and directories you want to backup: you can use as many as you want. After you’ve finished configuring it, you can close the Arq main window: the app has a non-intrusive status bar menu for monitoring the upload method.

Arq Backup for macOS stores your encrypted backups in a format that’s open and documented. You control the backup data. Use Arq to backup to:

• Your AWS (S3/Glacier) account
• Your Wasabi account
• Your Backblaze B2 account
• Your Google Drive account
• Your Google Cloud Storage account
• Your Dropbox account
• Your OneDrive account
• Your SFTP server
• Your NAS or external hard drive

There’s even an open-source restore tool, so you can decrypt your backup data without the Arq app if you want to. Knowing where your backups are and being able to see the data directly brings peace of mind.

It protects whichever files you tell it to back up, automatically, every hour. Backups are stored in your cloud account or NAS or SFTP server to protect against theft, ransomware, disaster. No one else can read your backups because everything is encrypted before it leaves your computer with a password only you know.

Arq Backup integrates with many different cloud providers. So if you have a cloud account with some extra space available, use it for encrypted, versioned backups of your important files. It stores your encrypted backups in a format that’s open and documented.

Arq helps you to encrypt backups with a password before uploading them to help you keep the data secure. In addition, the developers have an open-source command-line tool that can be used to decrypt the data without using the Arq app.

Furthermore, Arq’s Preferences window allows you to set limits for the limit, automatic, and preset transfer speeds. This way, you will ensure that the backup does not use too much bandwidth.
