Compliance mode

The Compliance mode is designed for clients with higher security demands. This mode requires mandatory encryption for all backups and allows only locally set encryption passwords.

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

The Compliance mode cannot be disabled.

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