In order to secure your backup data, the Magnia SG30 offers
the ability to encrypt the contents of a backup. This
encryption is powerful, and is extremely difficult to reverse
without your password.
In order to encrypt your backups, you must enable this
feature and specify a password.
1 From a client computer, click the Admin icon to start the
Administration Web site.
2 Select the System tab and click the Backup menu item.
The System Backup screen appears.
3 Select the Manage advanced options item and click
Next.
4 Select backup encryption by unchecking the I do not
want to encrypt my backup archives option. You must
then also enter a password, which will be used for all
backups.
5 Click Apply when you have entered your password.
NOTE: When you enable encryption of backup archives, all
backups performed from that point on will be encrypted. This
includes full, partial and incremental as well as manual and
automatic backups.
NOTE: Do not forget your password. If you forget your password,
there is no way to retrieve the information in your encrypted
backup archives. Write your password down and place it in a
secure location.
