Backup that just works.
lionbackup is the backup cloud for businesses, public-sector organisations and teams that want to protect their data securely, sovereignly and without surprises.
What lionbackup does for you
You back up your most important data – servers, databases, file shares, entire directories – and store it encrypted in a European data centre of your choice. If something is lost, you get everything back in just a few steps. You stay in full control: of where your data lives, of your encryption keys and of every access.
We take care of running the storage infrastructure, of redundancy and of platform security. You take care of your business.
How it works – in three steps
Install & connect
Download the lightweight lionbackup client (Linux & Windows) and connect it with an access token you create in the portal. One installation, no sprawling agents.
Encrypt & upload
Your data is encrypted on your own system – before it leaves your premises. Only then is it compressed and transferred to the storage location you selected.
Retain & restore
Your backups are stored immutably for the retention period you define. You can start a restore yourself at any time – individual files or the entire set.
Your benefits
End-to-end encrypted
Encryption happens on your device. Your keys stay with you – nobody else, not even us, can read your content.
Located in Europe
You choose the region. Data is stored exclusively in vetted European data centres – GDPR-compliant and digitally sovereign.
Stored immutably
During the retention period, backups can neither be overwritten nor deleted. Protection against ransomware and accidental data loss.
Fair & predictable
You only pay for what you actually store – per gigabyte and month. No base fee, no hidden costs.
Multi-tenant
Keep organisations, projects and access tokens cleanly separated. Ideal for teams, departments and service providers.
Open client
The lionbackup client is open source and verifiable. Trust comes from transparency, not promises.
Who is lionbackup made for?
For businesses that don’t want to hand over their backups. For public-sector organisations with high demands on data protection and data sovereignty. And for teams looking for reliable, traceable backup without headaches. lionbackup is aimed at businesses, public-law entities and comparable organisations.
