Q: Integrative management of personal information

My data are not integrated nor very well organized. I use a somewhat distributed and categorized storage system, but I really wish I had something that can do the following. Does anybody know such a software system?

Requirements
1. backed up: nothing is more frustrating than loosing all your information at once
2. secure: I want to be able to dump all the sensitive information in my brain to somewhere
3. control I want to be the person who controls my information, not bound by some EULA that I won't read.
4. widely used data format: in case I want to migrate the data to some other format in the future
5. keyboard only navigation: I don't like moving my hand to the mouse too often
6. simple hierarchical organization + tags
7. fast text search
8. versioning
