Description Key Component
The Norton Ghost program lets you define, schedule, and run backups of
your computer. When you run a backup, recovery points of your computer
are created, which you can then use to recover your entire computer, or
individual drives, files, and folders. You can also manage recovery point
storage (backup destination), and monitor the backup status of your
computer to make sure your valuable data is backed up on a regular basis.
