A backup is an archived copy of an individual's personality. This may be kept for reference purposes, to debug an android, to partially restore an android after damage or erasure of her personality, to completely rebuild an individual after death or destruction, or to create additional copes of a individual, depending on the setting.

A backup poses the same technical problems as personality transfer in general. It is easiest to copy from or to conventional computer architectures. It is harder to copy from or to neural nets, or from or to the organic human brain.
