You can secure backups stored in remote storage with a password. Doing
so encrypts the passwords stored in the backup, such as mail account
passwords or database user passwords. Even if a third party obtains a
backup, they will not be able to get the passwords stored inside.
When you restore a password-secured backup, you need to provide the
password. If you cannot, all passwords stored in the backup are
generated randomly.
To secure remote storage backups with a password:
-
Configure at least one remote storage.
-
Go to Websites & Domains > the subscription > Backup Manager > Remote Storage Settings.
The section “Backup security settings” has become available. -
Under “Password Protection”, click the “change” link next to
“Disabled”. -
Select the “Use password protection (recommended)” checkbox.
-
Type in the password in the corresponding fields.
-
Click OK.
Now all backups stored in remote storage will be secured with the
password.
