BuddyBackup has introduced new backup offering that provides backup for users files to users friends’ computers automatically over the Internet in a secure manner.
According to the company, the offering provides users with the benefits of online backup without paying a penny. ‘Buddies’ give each other space on their hard drives to allow a reciprocal backup. Files are encrypted before sending and then transmitted over the Internet to users buddy’s computer for safe keeping.
BuddyBackup uses users Internet connection smartly by only sending changes to files, and slowing down when user is using PC.
The company claims that it allows users to store multiple copies of users files across buddies’ computers, so even if one of users buddies is away, user can still retrieve files back from another one.
Further, the backup offering can be used to backup a USB drive so that user can also have a local copy of files, photos and documents.
