CrashPlan Pro (hereafter CPP) is back up software provided by Code 42 software. CPP starts by creating a snapshot of your users folder on your Mac or PC. Once it has created the snapshot, it will periodically scan your computer for changed files. It then examines these files to determine the specific parts that have changed, and syncs those changes over to the CPP server. This means that once the first backup is done, you likely will not even notice the backups up being performed. If you do, then you can always pause it for 24 hours. Because the amount of data transferred is normally so small, CPP is able to backup using any network connection. Once a CPP enabled system is connected to any type of network, it will start its periodic backups. This makes it ideal for laptops taken away from CCBB for long periods of time. There is also a web interface which you use to monitor backups, configure exclusions, and download files.
