Abstract

The systems and methods of distributed backup on a private network, comprising: establishing a secure and encrypted private network with one or more profile computing devices; establishing a whitelist of trusted profiles on a first profile computing device; selecting two or more profiles from the whitelist to backup information from the first profile computing device; tracking any updates to the network address of the selected profiles for backup; tracking information on remote profile computing devices that originated from the first profile computing device; sending differential information for backup that does not exist on other remote profile computing devices to the selected profile computing devices.

Claims (52)

1. A method of distributed backup on a private network, comprising:

establishing a secure and encrypted private network with one or more profile computing devices;

establishing a whitelist of trusted profiles on a first profile computing device;

selecting two or more profiles from the whitelist that are remote and separate to backup information from the first profile computing device;

tracking any updates to a network address of the selected profiles for backup;

tracking information that originated from the first profile computing device, on the selected profile computing devices;

sending differential information for backup that does not exist on the selected profile computing devices to the selected profile computing devices;

wherein the selected profile computing devices have backup information to allow for recovery of the first profile computing device.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

customizing the selected profiles for backup using one or more of the following: manually, based on available bandwidth or storage, or geographic location.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

periodically updating the selected profiles for backup.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

customizing the categories of information that is selected for backup.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

selecting whitelists information for backup.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

selecting profiles for backup using out of band factors including paying for storage services on another profile computing device.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

customizing the number of profile computing devices selected for backup.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

deleting all the secure objects on all profile computing devices on the private network other than the first profile computing device.

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

recovering partial information from one of the selected profile computing devices with backup information.

10. The method of claim 9 , further comprising:

recovering all information for the first computing devices using one or more of the selected profile computing devices with backup information.

11. A system of distributed backup on a private network, comprising:

a secure and encrypted private network with one or more profile computing devices configured to:

establish a whitelist of trusted profiles on a first profile computing device;

select two or more profiles from the whitelist that are remote and separate to backup information from the first profile computing device;

track any updates to a network address of the selected profiles for backup;

track information that originated from the first profile computing device, on the selected profile computing devices;

send differential information for backup that does not exist on the selected profile computing devices to the selected profile computing devices;

wherein the selected profile computing devices have backup information to allow for recovery of the first profile computing device.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the private network is further configured to:

customize the selected profiles for backup using one or more of the following: manually, based on available bandwidth or storage, or geographic location.

13. The system of claim 11 , wherein the private network is further configured to:

periodically update the selected profiles for backup.

14. The system of claim 11 , wherein the private network is further configured to:

customize the categories of information that is selected for backup.

15. The system of claim 11 , wherein the private network is further configured to:

select whitelists information for backup.

16. The system of claim 11 , wherein the private network is further configured to:

select profiles for backup using out of band factors including paying for storage services on another profile computing device.

17. The system of claim 11 , wherein the private network is further configured to:

customize the number of profile computing devices selected for backup.

18. The system of claim 11 , wherein the private network is further configured to:

delete all the secure objects on all profile computing devices on the private network other than the first profile computing device.

19. The system of claim 11 , wherein the private network is further configured to:

recover partial information from one of the selected profile computing devices with backup information.

20. The system of claim 19 , wherein the private network is further configured to:

recover all information for the first computing devices using one or more of the selected profile computing devices with backup information.
