Security You Can Count On
Your backups should be as secure as your website. That’s why all DreamPress backups—both daily and on-demand — are safely stored on Amazon S3. Off-site storage protects your data from localized server issues, ensuring your backups are always ready to restore when needed

Locked Backups
Keep your most important restore points safe. Locked Backups let you preserve specific versions of your WordPress site so they're never deleted or replaced during routine backup cycles—giving you complete control and extra peace of mind.
