Cloudback

Cloudback provides automated daily backups and restoration for GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps, and Linear — securing repository metadata, issues, pull requests, and project data with customer-managed encryption keys and SOC 2 Type II compliance. Who it's for: engineering teams wanting protection against accidental deletion, ransomware, or platform outages affecting their source code and project management data, beyond what the platforms' own built-in retention provides. Strengths: "bring your own storage" (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, OneDrive, Wasabi) means the team retains real control over where backup data actually lives, rather than trusting a third party's own storage exclusively. Write-once, read-many and air-gapped backup protection specifically defends against ransomware being able to also encrypt or delete the backups themselves — a real, structural safeguard. Weaknesses and limitations: per-repository pricing rather than a flat rate means cost scales directly with how many repositories are being protected — worth estimating against actual repo count. Real-world scenario: an engineering team wants protection against accidental deletion or a compromised account wiping out repository history and issue data, with backups genuinely isolated from being tampered with by the same attack.
