Standard NetBackup security
The standard NetBackup security only includes the security that is offered by the operating system and the hardware components of the data center. The authorized NetBackup users administer as root or administrator. Client data is not encrypted. The master server, media server, and client are all run within a local enterprise data center. Unencrypted data is usually stored on site, presenting a relatively high risk for no disaster recovery plan. Data that is sent off-site could be subject to a violation of confidentiality if it is intercepted.
The following figure shows an example of the standard NetBackup configuration.
