Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed for backing up a client data set on a computer by identifying changed files; generating a first sub-file signature for one or more segments of a changed file; subsequently generating a second sub-file signature for each file segment to detect insertions, removals, and rearrangements of data in the file; transmitting one more changed segment(s) in the file; and writing a manifest file reflecting the new target state.
