Abstract

A system and method is disclosed for live virtual incremental restoring of data from a cloud storage. An example method includes, in response to detecting a data backup, collecting information by a hardware processor of a computing device for configuring a list of changed sectors (LCS) of a storage medium of the computing device as a result of the data backup. The method further includes virtually restoring at least a portion of electronic data saved in the storage medium of the computing device from the cloud storage, the selected electronic data being previously saved in the cloud storage. The method also includes rebooting the computing device and applying changes to the storage medium of the computing device based on the LCS during a subsequent data backup.
