About MSDP Encryption using external KMS server

NetBackup supports keys from an external key management service (KMS) server that encrypts data in case of MSDP storage. Keys are retrieved from the external KMS server to encrypt the backup data.

For information about external KMS support, see the NetBackup Security and Encryption Guide.

The other information remains the same as mentioned in the following topic:

See About MSDP Encryption using NetBackup KMS service.
