This is pretty cool, so you have a cron job to secure tarball and push it to a cloud? How often works for you?
I actually use rclone. It's kind of rsync++, so only copies differences. It also handles the encryption for me. I think I have it running about every 5 minutes on that server. Most of the time it only runs for a few seconds to verify that nothing has changed.
