Submission + - Secure file storage over non-trusted ftp software?

Submitted by hmckee on Sunday August 17, 2008 @06:01PM

hmckee writes: Does any software exist that enables me to store/backup/sync files from my local computer to a non-trusted ftp site. To accomplish this, I'm using a script to check timestamps, encrypt and sign the files individually, then copying each file to an offsite FTP directory. I've looked over many different tools (Duplicity, Amanda, Bacula, WinSCP, FileZilla) but none of them seem to do exactly what I want:

Multi-platform (Windows and Linux), stand-alone client (can be run from a portable drive).
Secure backup (encrypted and signed) to non-trusted FTP site.
Ability to sync individual files without saving to a giant tar file.
Securely store timestamps and file names on the FTP server.

Any help or info on alternative solutions would be appreciated.
