Backup freshness check

A backup you cannot restore is no backup. The Backup Freshness card (Pro, Settings → Analysis) reads Akeeba Backup's own records and checks three things: that a backup tool is installed, when the last successful backup finished, and whether the latest attempt completed.

The age limit

Set Backup age limit (days), from 1 to 90, in Global Configuration → MuRu Guard. A newest successful backup older than that counts as stale, the card warns, and the security score drops.

Limits

Guard only reads Akeeba's records. It cannot see a backup your host makes outside Joomla.
