Introducing Tenebril Lifeguard 3.0 -- an automated backup solution designed to take the guesswork out of protecting your data. Don't get caught without it!

LifeGuard 3.0: How it works

Lifeguard is designed to blend power with ease of use. Its document-centric interface lets you choose what you want to back up without forcing you to find your files. Lifeguard is compatible with the major email clients, so it can back up your emails directly. Lifeguard's filtering lets you back up only what you need, and is powerful enough to look inside emails and documents. LifeGuard is perfect for people on the go, and especially for laptop owners!
