Enhanced security mode

The Enhanced security mode provides special settings for clients with increased security demands. This mode requires mandatory encryption for all backups and allows only locally set encryption passwords.

With the Enhanced security mode, all backups created in a customer tenant and its units are automatically encrypted with the AES algorithm and 256-bit key. Users can set their encryption passwords only on the protected devices, and cannot set the encryption passwords in the protection plans.

Cloud services cannot access the encryption passwords. Due to this limitation, the following features are not available for tenants in the Enhanced security mode:

• Recovery through the service console
• File-level browsing of backups through the service console
• Cloud-to-cloud backup
• Website backup
• Application backup
• Backup of mobile devices
• Antimalware scan of backups
• Safe recovery
• Automatic creation of corporate whitelists
• Data protection map
• Disaster recovery
• Reports and dashboards related to the unavailable features

Limitations

• The Enhanced security mode is compatible only with agents whose version is 15.0.26390 or higher.

• The Enhanced security mode is not available for devices running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.x or 5.x, and their derivatives.
