Its is single shot backup.
It is one kind of backup
1. Normal 2. Incremental
Five type of backup they are :1. Normal backup - It copy all the files marked in to be backup2. Incremental backup - only those files that have been created or changed since last incremental or normal backup.3. Decremental backup - The only copies files that have been created or changed since the last normal or incremental backup4.copy backup - It copy all the files u have selected5. Daily backup - It copy all the files u have selected that have been modified on the day
The Daily backup type is sort of an Differential off-shoot. In this backup type, only files that were changed (have the archive bit on), during the current day are backed up, and the Archive bit is left unchanged. This backup type is generally not used as part of a recovery program, because in order to do a full system restore, you would have to have a Normal backup, and then a Daily backup from each and every day since the Normal backup. thaslimca007@gmail.com
ANSWER: It stores all the files that have changed since the last backup.

Copy backupA copy backup copies all the files you select, but does not mark each file as having been backed up (in other words, the archive attribute is not cleared). Copying is useful if you want to back up files between normal and incremental backups because copying does not affect these other backup operations.Daily backupA daily backup copies all the files that you select that have been modified on the day the daily backup is performed. The backed-up files are not marked as having been backed up (in other words, the archive attribute is not cleared).Differential backupA differential backup copies files that have been created or changed since the last normal or incremental backup. It does not mark files as having been backed up (in other words, the archive attribute is not cleared). If you are performing a combination of normal and differential backups, restoring files and folders requires that you have the last normal as well as the last differential backup.Incremental backupAn incremental backup backs up only those files that have been created or changed since the last normal or incremental backup. It marks files as having been backed up (in other words, the archive attribute is cleared). If you use a combination of normal and incremental backups, you will need to have the last normal backup set as well as all incremental backup sets to restore your data.Normal backupA normal backup copies all the files you select and marks each file as having been backed up (in other words, the archive attribute is cleared). With normal backups, you only need the most recent copy of the backup file or tape to restore all of the files. You usually perform a normal backup the first time you create a backup set.

It is the copy made of the original work. It is usually made on portable media. If the original work gets damaged or deleted the backup can be used.
A Backup Exec keeps a backup of all the work. They ensure the stability and protection of data especially during disk-to-disk transitions. Basically they help protect and store backup of data.
