At the moment a customer performs an "Inherit", the server in the Backblaze datacenter generates a unique new 24 hex random number called an "Inherit Backup State Code" and puts that same code in two places: 1) on the server, and 2) on your local computer. This is ALWAYS a good idea, but just to put your mind at ease it is very unlikely this is a result of a hack of any kind and has a more straight-forward explanation (see below).įirst some background (if you are interested) in how Backblaze detects a computer's backup was "Inherited Away" by another computer resulting in the popup you are seeing. Disclaimer: I worked at Backblaze and wrote a lot of the code that just popped that up on your computer.
