Compress backup
files
Under

Compress backup files

Compressing files during backup will use less disk space.
Compressed files are stored in WinZip®-compatible
format. You can extract one or more selected files without
having to decompress an entire folder of files.
Password-protect

You can assign a password to your backup files to
prevent unauthorized use. Under

Passwords are case-sensitive. When you restore

prompt you for the password. If you do not enter
the correct password, or you forget the
password, you will not be able to open the
backup file.
