online-backup

I've just purchased a Synology DS210j for my home network and would like to backup this NAS online. I noticed that DiskStation Manager v2.3 provides various options including Amazon S3 and rsync:

Does anybody have some real usage against cost statistics for Amazon's S3 service?
How is sensitive data protected on Amazon S3?
Are there any rsync online backup options? If so, what do people recommend?

UPDATE: I am still unable to find any decent answers to the above questions, can anybody help me out?
