+ I guess you could always fashion your own with the collection of tools that comes installed on your machine :)
I'm not sure what you are running.

@nate Linux, but it's pretty hard to do encrypted *and* deduplicated backups without dedicated software. Encryption breaks lower-layer (e.g. btrfs) deduplication. Encryption is valuable because the backups are stored in a bank vault, which could be robbed or something. Deduplication is valuable because that makes it possible to keep backups going back several years without running out of disk space on the backup drives.
