Recently, I thought about the security of my sites. I've been looking for a solution for days, but I can't find anything. :(

The bottom line is this. There is a home server on Ubuntu in the pantry. I would like to make it so that backup sites are regularly downloaded from two different servers, and not only files, but also mysql.

On one server, access is only via ssh, on the other and ssh, and ftp.

What is the best thing to do? What utilities can I use?

Everything is complicated by the fact that only new and changed files are downloaded. For if all sites are downloaded every day, I will eat up all the traffic. :) Well, it will take too long .

Can you advise something?

maybe rsync will suffice?

Rsync is great. In addition, I recommend backing up the databases on the server using the crown, compressing them and using the same rsync to pull them to your server.

And if you raise some kind of VCS, for example, mercurial, then it will be possible to save previous versions ...

BackupPC - for the file system.
Works through rsync, rsync can work over SSH.
MySQL databases are pre-dumped:

rsnapshot, rsync.
Here is a good article with a related section (see section 5): madspace2.rajeshprakash.com/lowendvpsconfig.htm
Under windows you can use cwRsync: www.stillnetstudios.com/snapshot-backups-howto/
