**CodeGuard’s automatic backup feature** is designed to protect your website by creating regular backups of your site’s files and databases. Here’s how it works:

### **1. **Automated Backup Scheduling**

   - **Regular Intervals**: CodeGuard automatically schedules backups at predefined intervals, such as daily, weekly, or monthly. You can configure the frequency based on your needs and preferences.

   - **Set and Forget**: Once configured, CodeGuard handles backups automatically without requiring manual intervention, ensuring your website’s data is regularly saved.

### **2. **Comprehensive Backup Coverage**

   - **File and Database Backups**: CodeGuard backs up both your website’s files (such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and databases (such as MySQL). This ensures that all aspects of your site, including content and functionality, are covered.

   - **Full Site Snapshot**: Each backup creates a full snapshot of your site at the time of the backup, capturing the complete state of your site’s files and databases.

### **3. **Incremental Backups**

   - **Efficient Storage**: CodeGuard uses incremental backups, which means only changes made since the last backup are saved. This reduces storage requirements and speeds up the backup process.

   - **Version History**: Incremental backups allow you to access different versions of your site, providing the ability to restore to a specific point in time.

### **4. **Change Detection**

   - **Automatic Monitoring**: CodeGuard monitors your site for changes and triggers backups automatically whenever significant changes are detected. This ensures that new or modified content is included in the backups.

   - **Detailed Change Logs**: It provides detailed logs of changes detected between backups, helping you track modifications and understand what has been updated.

### **5. **Secure Storage**

   - **Encrypted Backups**: CodeGuard encrypts your backups to ensure that your data is protected from unauthorized access and tampering.

   - **Cloud Storage**: Backups are stored securely in the cloud, providing reliable and scalable storage solutions with high availability.

### **6. **One-Click Restoration**

   - **Easy Recovery**: In the event of data loss, corruption, or website issues, you can quickly restore your site to a previous state with just a few clicks. CodeGuard’s restoration process is user-friendly and efficient.

   - **Test Restores**: Optionally, you can test restore backups to ensure they are functioning correctly and to familiarize yourself with the restoration process.

### **7. **Notifications and Alerts**

   - **Backup Status Updates**: CodeGuard provides notifications and alerts regarding the status of your backups, including successful completions or any issues encountered.

   - **Automatic Alerts**: If any problems arise during the backup process, you are promptly informed so that you can address them.

### **8. **Easy Integration**

   - **Platform Compatibility**: CodeGuard integrates seamlessly with various hosting platforms and content management systems (CMS), making it easy to set up and manage backups regardless of your site’s infrastructure.

By utilizing CodeGuard’s automatic backup feature, you ensure that your website’s data is regularly and securely backed up, allowing for quick recovery in case of data loss or other issues. This helps maintain the integrity and availability of your website, providing peace of mind and protection against potential disruptions.
