I use borg[0] to create local space efficient encrypted backups and rclone[1] to mirror the archives to Google Drive. I wrote a short script to automate it and schedule it to run every night.

You don't have the Google drive app installed anywhere?

If you do, this setup doesn't help recovery after a cryptolocker. The encrypted backup would also be unusable.

Currently at $WORK using Attic (which Borg was forked from), with plans to migrate to Borg.

At home, rsync to NAS and ZFS snapshots.
