🧠 Why protecting OpenDrive matters
Relying solely on OpenDrive’s built-in sync and versioning exposes you to risks like silent corruption, accidental deletion, ransomware, or account compromise. Permanent data loss or compliance failures can occur if files are deleted or tampered with and no independent backup exists. Without robust, externalized backups, recovery options are limited and downtime can be costly.
🔓 What if your OpenDrive is deleted or compromised?
OpenDrive’s native protections may not be enough if files are deleted, overwritten by malware, or accessed with leaked credentials. Permanent deletions or ransomware attacks can propagate quickly, leaving no clean copy to restore. Plakar mitigates these risks by:
- Creating immutable, encrypted snapshots outside OpenDrive’s access scope
- Storing backups in external or air-gapped locations
- Enabling granular recovery of individual files or folders without full restores
Your data remains safe, verifiable, and restorable, regardless of what happens in your live OpenDrive environment.
🛡️ How Plakar secures your OpenDrive workflows
Plakar integrates with OpenDrive as both a source and destination:
- Snapshot files and folders from OpenDrive, encrypt and deduplicate them, and store them in a trusted Kloset store
- Restore verified snapshots back into OpenDrive or other environments, on-prem or cloud-based
- Use OpenDrive as a Plakar Kloset stores, keeping backups portable and secure
Plakar adds end-to-end encryption, global deduplication, versioning, and snapshot browsing giving you full control over backup and restore, even offline or across providers.
