The update to Xopero ONE & GitProtect version 2.0.0 is more than just another release – it’s the result of consistent platform development aimed at maximizing cyber resilience, reliability, and readiness to operate in the most demanding IT environments. It’s a direct response to the real needs of administrators, DevOps teams, and IT service providers who require solutions that are both stable and agile.
Among the key highlights are official support for Apple devices with M-series processors, advanced two-factor authentication (2FA) based on OTP apps, full support for Jira Automation Rules in GitProtect – including granular recovery and Disaster Recovery mode – as well as a number of important backup optimizations for Microsoft 365 and VMware. The deduplication mechanism has been improved, user onboarding is now more intuitive, and both login and task processing performance have been significantly enhanced.
This release strengthens administrators’ day-to-day work, streamlines processes, and enables more effective data protection management – with full control and alignment with best security practices.
A New Standard in Security and Management in Xopero ONE
2FA Based on Industry Best Practices
Data protection starts with access security – that’s why Xopero ONE 2.0.0 introduces advanced two-factor authentication (2FA) using applications like Google Authenticator. This industry-standard solution significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access, and its flexible configuration allows alignment with internal security policies.
Official Support for Apple Devices with M-Series Processors
Official support for Apple devices with M1 processors responds to the growing adoption of Apple infrastructure in business environments. The Xopero ONE agent now runs natively on the ARM platform, ensuring better performance, stability, and integration with the Apple ecosystem.
Smart Deduplication – Fewer Resources, More Benefits
In version 2.0.0, we’ve optimized the deduplication mechanism, especially for disk image backups and VMware environments. The new algorithm significantly reduces the volume of data to be analyzed and accelerates block comparison, resulting in lower system load, faster task execution, and improved overall efficiency. This is especially important for organizations processing large volumes of data daily.
Please note that this optimization changes the deduplication data format in the storage. Although the system will automatically update the data according to your set retention policy, we recommend manually initiating the storage cleanup process after updating to version 2.0.0 – this will help free up space more quickly and fully leverage the new mechanism’s capabilities.
Streamlined Onboarding – Fewer Clicks, Greater Impact
In version 2.0.0, we’ve simplified and improved the process of creating the first backup plan. The new onboarding guides users step-by-step through the configuration in a more intuitive and readable way. We’ve added additional icon descriptions, messages about encryption and storage selection, and made default schedules dynamic to better adapt to the environment.
This enables users to get started faster, with confidence that their data is properly protected – without unnecessary clicks or confusion.
Greater Operational Control – Better Performance and Transparency
Version 2.0.0 introduces advanced improvements in diagnostics, monitoring, and backup environment management – all designed with administrators in mind, especially those managing distributed and often heterogeneous infrastructures.
- Agent identification during task execution – full backup process visibility, particularly in Microsoft 365 and Git environments.
- Advanced SMB operation logs – enhanced transparency during recovery from network shares.
- Optimization of a single agent handling multiple tasks – improved performance and stability in complex environments.
- Remote agent updates in closed environments (DMZ) – full automation without manual intervention.
These enhancements are not just about ergonomics – they deliver tangible improvements that lead to faster issue resolution and more efficient security policy management.
Secure and Flexible MSP Access to Client Environments
Xopero ONE and GitProtect now feature a mechanism allowing MSP partners to access client environments remotely – directly from the management console. This functionality allows assigning access with full privileges or in read-only mode, depending on the end client’s preferences.
This solution ensures:
- full access control,
- compliance with internal security policies,
- transparency of MSP partner activities.
Support for this feature is already embedded in the system and will be available for activation as soon as it is released.
Important: The feature remains hidden until activated. By default, MSP access is disabled for all existing services.
GitProtect 2.0.0 – Full Support for Jira Automation
The new GitProtect 2.0.0 release is designed with DevOps teams and Atlassian administrators in mind. Backup and granular recovery of Jira Automation Rules fills a significant gap left by Jira’s native export mechanisms.
The new version offers:
- protection of key automation rules that impact workflows,
- full integration with the existing Jira backup architecture in GitProtect,
- support for granular recovery at the organization or project level.
With this feature, teams gain more control over automation configurations – both for Disaster Recovery strategies and everyday testing and development.
