Jersey City, NJ (September 7, 2007) - In its continuing commitment to help end users protect their PCs, Comodo Security Solutions, today announced the release Comodo BackUp Version 1.0.2. This update enables easier automated file duplication and recovery so users can quickly schedule ongoing backups of critical files. This free solution addresses a critical need of many users who understand the importance of file backup but who have failed to implement such a policy or procedure because of concerns over difficulty and cost.

Consumers often overlook backing up files because of perceived difficultly, costs, or both. Comodo's new version of its backup solution addresses these issues. The release incorporates new features designed to enable the safe and easy backup of critical data. Suitable for home users and network administrators alike, Comodo BackUp protects data from system crashes, accidental deletion, and corruption from viruses. Files that are backed up can be saved to a variety of customer-selected media such as a local or network drives as well as FTP servers and CD/DVD rewriters. Should the original files become damaged or lost, users can quickly recover them using Comodo BackUp's one touch 'restore' feature.

Key features of Comodo BackUp include:

* Complete file and folder duplication to local / network drives, FTP servers and CD/DVD re-writers
* Schedule backups to run automatically according to user defined timetable
* File Synchronization - real time backups whereby files are copied as soon as they are saved
* Intelligent incremental backups
* Advanced, rule-based filtering
* E-mail reporting to mailing lists upon backup completion

"Backing up files is an important part of safe PC practices since one never knows when files may be lost due to hackers or viruses," said Melih Abdulhayoglu, CEO and Chief Security Architect of Comodo. "Now home users and network administrators have a simple and free way to automatically protect their data. This is yet another essential, free tool we've developed to help consumers to maintain safe and secure computers."
