Backup Encryption

Backup Encryption

Backup encryption is an important step in protecting your data. When completing a backup of all of the servers, systems and data in your enterprise, you want to ensure that an outside party cannot access the information should it inadvertently fall into the wrong hands.

Backup encryption involves translating the data on the backup into an unbreakable software code which ensures that sensitive information cannot be interpreted by an outside party. The only way to interpret the data is to have the proper software to decode it and the proper access (through password protection).

Backup encryption has become extremely critical as more and more data backup archives are compromised. There have been numerous stories in the past several years detailing situations when critical information has passed into the wrong hands. Backup encryption provides an additional level of protection in the event of theft or other unintentional data loss.
