A combination of tar (that can do incremental backups) and scp or
similar will do 2, 3, and 5. 1 can be handled by cron. 4 probably has
to be delegated to openssl like was suggested, encrypting with a
public key, etc. 

It should be possible with a simple script. I used to have one that
did everything but encryption, I don't know if I can dig it out (of
backups)... ;-)
