At Jetpack VaultPress Backup, we know how frustrating a website breakdown can be, and how important it is to get back online as soon as possible.
We know that every minute counts when your website is down. Downtime can mean losing customers to your online shop, fans of your poetry blog, or potential clients for your consulting services. When your website breaks, you’d like to get it back up and running as soon as possible. The last thing that you’d like to think about is digging up FTP/SSH credentials.
Today, we’re excited to announce that Jetpack VaultPress Backup can restore WordPress website backups without your server password, making website restores simpler and up to 10 times faster.
Bye, credentials!
No more calling your hosting provider to get your server login, or digging through old emails looking for that one email from 2015 with your website’s FTP username and password — we’re now able to restore your website without FTP/SSH credentials.
We at the Jetpack VaultPress Backup team have spent over a year devising and implementing a novel method to restore website backups in a secure, performant, and efficient way over HTTPS. We came up with a bespoke binary format to transfer your website’s resources (posts, comments, images) back to your website when restoring it.
To use the new restore method, you don’t have to do anything new — just click on the “Restore to this point” button whenever you’d like to restore a website, and we’ll figure out the rest:

Secure your siteUp to 10x faster restores!
Our bespoke binary format enables us to copy data over HTTPS very efficiently while preserving your website’s resources (CPU, RAM, I/O) at the same time, leading to blazing-fast restore speeds with solid reliability.
For example, a WordPress website hosted in the United States with 420 posts, 4500 high-definition images, and 40 plugins, all taking up ~3 GB of disk space, used to take about 20 minutes to fully restore from a backup. Now, it takes a mere 5 minutes to do the same restore — about 4 times faster.
A similar website hosted in Singapore used to take a bit more than 4 hours to restore (due to increased network latency). Now the very same restore takes only 24 minutes to do — that’s about 10 times faster.
