example, 30 days, the program will start consolidation when the oldest backup is stored for 
31 days. 
5.2.8  Providing a comment 
Provide a comment for the archive. This can help identify the backup and prevent you from 
restoring the wrong data. However, you can choose not to make any notes. The backup file 
size and creation date are automatically appended to the description, so you do not need to 
enter this information. 
5.2.9  The operation summary and the backup process 
At the final step, the backup task summary is displayed. Up to this point, you can make 
changes in the created task by clicking on the desired step and changing the settings. 
Clicking Proceed will start the task execution if you have configured the task to be started 
manually, by choosing the Do not schedule option at the Scheduling step, or have left 
selected the Run task now box for a scheduled task. 
The task progress will be shown in a special window. You can stop the procedure by clicking 
Cancel
You can also close the progress window by clicking Hide. The backup creation will continue, 
but you will be able to start another operation or close the main program window. In the 
latter case, the program will continue working in the background and will automatically close 
once the backup archive is ready. If you prepare some more backup operations, they will be 
queued after the current one. 
5.3  Fine-tuning your backups 
You can fine-tune your backups to specific tasks. Such fine-tuning is made by configuring 
backup options before starting a backup task. 
You can set temporary backup options by editing the default backup options while creating a 
backup task. 
In addition, when backing up your data files, you can create custom data categories for 
backup.  
5.3.1  Archive protection 
The preset is no password
Suppose you have some files with sensitive information, for example, your tax return, which 
you need to back up. Seagate BlackArmor Backup can help you protect your sensitive 
information from getting into the wrong hands. The simplest (and the least secure) way is 
protecting your backup with a password. Let's remind you that to make a password more 
difficult to guess, it should consist of at least eight symbols and contain both letters (upper 
and lower case, preferably) and numbers. If you think that a password will not give you 
sufficient security, use encryption for your backup. Seagate BlackArmor Backup allows 
encrypting backup files with the industry-standard AES cryptographic algorithm. A 128-bit 
encryption key is sufficient for most applications. The longer the key, the more secure your 
data. However, the 192 and 256-bit long keys significantly slow down the backup process, 
though in the case being considered this most likely will not be an issue, because the files 
will not be too large. The encryption settings are available only for password-protected 
archives.
