A system just helps quickly and to recover separate files, folders, data of applications, the whole servers from one backup copy. The universality of technology provides recovery of the server, both in initial location, and on the new, different equipment or the virtual machine.
Acronis Backup Advanced for Linux Server
Acronis Backup Advanced for Linux Server is the solution for protection of working environments on the basis of the Linux servers.
In this product the patented Acronis AnyData technology for creation of images at the level of blocks providing the most speed copy and the most flexible and reliable opportunities of recovery is used.
Acronis Backup Advanced for Linux Server is compatible to the built-in means of protecting of Astra Linux
Acronis company (the decision maker for disaster recovery and protection), NPO Rusbitech (the creator of the protected Astra Linux operating system) and also IBS company (software provider and IT services in Eastern Europe) jointly tested the products at the beginning of 2015. According to test results, IBS which is carried out by engineers, the product Acronis Backup Advanced for Linux Server showed full compatibility with the built-in means of protecting of Astra Linux, including with a mandatory access control system. Thus, Acronis Backup Advanced for Linux Server together with Astra Linux is ready for operation in systems processing confidential information and information which belongs to the state secret.
Astra Linux — the special purpose operating system based on Linux core created for needs of bodies of the public and military administration and other organizations which work with information of limited access. The Astra Linux provides the protected information processing of any level of confidentiality, whether it be personal data, a trade, official or state secret, up to data with a signature stamp "top secret". The built-in means of protecting of OS are developed together with FSB of Russia Academy and Institute of system programming of RAS. It agrees tested in February of this year, during creation of backup copies in the system of Astra Linux the product of Acronis saves the tags of confidentiality appropriated to data and further correctly recovers them.
"Today the relevance of use of domestic technologies is absolutely obvious to creation of the protected automated systems. The operating system offered by us is created together with leading specialists on a computer security and protects any processed information from unauthorized access — Lyapin Vladislav, the CEO of NPO Rusbitech said. — Today the Astra Linux is used for work with confidential data not only in government institutions, but also in state corporations, the enterprises of defense industry complex, medical and educational institutions.

The universality of technology allows to recover the server both in initial location, and on absolutely other equipment or the virtual machine, noted in Acronis.
"The classified information as well as any other, needs not only protection against foreign access, but also safety on a case of a hardware failure, errors in system operation and other unforeseen incidents. Our product provides fast and simple data recovery in Linux Wednesday, and we tried to make everything that he also easily and imperceptibly coped with this task in systems with increased requirements to security of information" — Korotayev Kirill, the vice president of Acronis for development reported.

General functionality of products
Backup of complete images
The technology of backup on the basis of disk images at the level of blocks allows to save data of all applications and operating systems for one stage. Not used data units automatically are passed for fall forward of backup and economy of resources of storage.
Effective incremental backup
At incremental backup only the changed data remain that considerably will reduce backup time, saves resources of network and storage.
Flexible recovery
Only the necessary data are recovered: selective files, folders, volumes or all server from one backup copy of an image.
