In computing, Duplicity is a software suite that provides easy encrypted, versioned, remote backup of files requiring little of the remote server. It does this using GnuPG, tar, and rdiff. To transmit data it can use ssh/scp, local file access, rsync, ftp, and Amazon S3.
Released under the terms of the GNU General Public License, Duplicity is free software.
Duplicity works best under Linux, though it can be used with Windows under cygwin and on Mac OS/X [1]. Using Duplicity under non-Linux operating systems may require configuration options to conform to native filename requirements (e.g. use of the --short-filenames or --time-separator command line options.)
