Norton Ghost images are compressed to save space, and can be password-protected to prevent unauthorized access. Images can be stored on a variety of media, including external hard drives, recordable CDs and DVDs, and network-attached storage devices. Norton Ghost can be used to create images of both local and networked computers.

Norton Ghost is a program that allows users to create a complete copy, or “image,” of a computer’s hard drive.
