Retention levels

Ransomware attackers specifically target and attempt to destroy backup systems to increase the probability of payment. Hardening your system is critical. Please ensure you have reviewed your platform security using the Security Hardening Checklist

In a policy, the retention level determines how long NetBackup retains the backups or the archives that are created according to the schedule. This setting applies to the master server.

Note:

These operations are only available when you create NetBackup policies. If you do not choose a specific level, the default level of 2 weeks is used.
