===== Minimal Profile  =====

This profile takes a daily snapshot, one every 24 hours. The last 2 versions are kept. The first one will be taken upon the activation of the profile.

===== Security Profile  =====
This offers:

 - 3 versions per day (one every 6 hours over 18 hours)

 - 6 versions per week (at 24-hour intervals, the first being at 48 hours)

 - 1 version every 28 days
