+with the following principles in mind:
+
+@itemize
+@item Easy: Doing backups should be a frictionless process, otherwise you
+might be tempted to skip it.  Restic should be easy to configure and use, so
+that, in the event of a data loss, you can just restore it.  Likewise,
+restoring data should not be complicated.
+
+@item Fast: Backing up your data with restic should only be limited by your
+network or hard disk bandwidth so that you can backup your files every day.
+Nobody does backups if it takes too much time.  Restoring backups should only
+transfer data that is needed for the files that are to be restored, so that
+this process is also fast.
+
+@item Verifiable: Much more important than backup is restore, so restic
+enables you to easily verify that all data can be restored.  @item Secure:
+Restic uses cryptography to guarantee confidentiality and integrity of your
+data.  The location the backup data is stored is assumed not to be a trusted
+environment (e.g.  a shared space where others like system administrators are
+able to access your backups).  Restic is built to secure your data against
+such attackers.
+
+@item Efficient: With the growth of data, additional snapshots should only
+take the storage of the actual increment.  Even more, duplicate data should be
+de-duplicated before it is actually written to the storage back end to save
+precious backup space.
+@end itemize")
