Product Information

Norton Ghost protects PCs—including all applications, settings, folders, and files—with advanced backup and recovery. It provides powerful protection with new features such as offsite backups and Symantec ThreatCon integration, as well as enhanced performance, remote management, LightsOut Restore capability, and more. With Norton Ghost you have a choice of backup types: full system (disk image) or specific files and folders. Incremental backups and enhanced compression help reduce the amount of required storage, while encryption helps keep everything safe. Norton Ghost works with most storage devices, including external hard drives, networked drives, and recordable and rewritable CDs and DVDs.
