    Why backing up your GitHub data?

    GitHub isn't a backup solution and doesn't offer any guarantees. Metadata and content are at risk of being lost, corrupted, deleted or even being compromised.

    ISO 27001GDPR

    Legal and Compliance

    GDPR, HIPAA, SOC2, ISO27001 compliance requires data protection and recovery plans.

    Ransomware and Account Takeover

    Even GitHub can be hit by account takeovers or ransomware-style data loss, and all your data is not available on local env.

    Human error and outages

    Accounts get deleted, repositories get deleted, issues get deleted, your data is at risk.

    What's included in a GitHub backup

    One connection backs up everything. There is no add-on to buy and nothing to configure per repository.

    Backup and restore, not just backup

    Every backup can be downloaded as a compressed archive, straight from the interface or from your storage provider. It lands on storage you own, so your GitHub data stays reachable even if you stop using SimpleBackups.

    Connect the organization once and every repository inside it is covered, including the ones created later: new repositories are picked up automatically on the next run. One schedule and one retention policy for the whole organization, with no cap on how much you back up.

    Does GitHub back up your data?

    GitHub replicates its infrastructure to keep the service running. That is not a backup of your account, and you cannot restore from it.

    Issue needed development on SimpleBackups side and the team delivered in record time. For someone who has worked with tech and dev teams, I believe you did a great job within the time frame, bearing in mind I'm still not a paying customer.
