Syncrify Features
Syncrify is an ideal remote backup solution for individuals as well as corporate users,
offering a cost-effective way to quickly and easily backup files of any type and size to any machine running a variety
of operating systems.
Security
Privacy
One of the biggest challenges faced by companies using service-based online backups is, privacy. Syncrify allows you to create
a private-cloud within your company. This means backed up files remain within your network mitigating privacy concerns
that usually arise from outsourcing backed up data to online service providers.
SSL and HTTPS
HTTPS ensures the communication channel between a client and server is secure. Actual file transfers as well as any
administrative tasks can be optionally encrypted using SSL. A self-signed SSL certificate comes bundled with the
product that gets you up and running within minutes.
Ransomware Prevention
Before running backups, Syncrify can detect if the machine was recently infected with a ransomware virus. The Administrator
is alerted via email if such an infection is detected and new backups are aborted, saving the previously backed up data.
Encryption
While HTTPS ensures a secure communication channel, encryption prevents unauthorized access to the files once
they are copied on the server. Syncrify uses strong AES encryption to protect files, which can only be accessed
with a password key.
User accounts
Every user is associated with a user ID and password. Administrators can monitor who connects to the server
in real-time.
Design Benefits

HTTP
Data is transferred using HTTP(S), which is a firewall-friendly protocol. Most companies allow outbound HTTP
traffic allowing Syncrify to run seamlessly without any additional configuration in the corporate firewall.
SyncriBox
If you are familiar with DropBox, Google Drive, or Microsoft OneDrive, you will love
SyncriBox. SyncriBox is everything
you get from these public cloud service without any privacy issues.
Incremental backup
Syncrify copies the part of a file that is different between the source and target allowing network administrators to backup gigabytes
of data every day without sacrificing network bandwidth
Access files from anywhere
Users can view or download their backed up files on Syncrify Server from any internet connected computer using just a web browser.
Files are even accessible from mobile devices such as cell phones and tablets.

Scheduling
This built-in service for Syncrify ensures backups run in the background even when users are not logged in.
Versioning
Automatically maintain multiple versions of a backed up file on the server. Previous versions are stored as file-deltas reducing the
disk usage to a minimum while providing the ability to restore any older version.

Compression
Syncrify uses smart-compression, which compresses data before sending them over the network. In cases where
compression has no or very little effect on the file size, Syncrify saves CPU cycles by transferring the
files as-is. For example, a 10MB MP3 file won't benefit from compression whereas a 10MB Text file can be
easily reduced to less than 1 MB with compression.
Two-way sync
Allows for file synchronization in both directions. Synchronize one or more folders on multiple machines. Whether you want
to synchronize documents or entire web servers, this feature makes sure you always have the latest version
on every machine.
