About data encryption for cloud storage

You can encrypt your data before you send it to the cloud. The NetBackup Cloud Storage Server Configuration Wizard and the Disk Pool Configuration Wizard include the steps that configure key management and encryption.

NetBackup uses NetBackup Key Management Service (NetBackup KMS) and external key management service (external KMS) for managing data encryption in case of cloud disk storage.

See About NetBackup KMS for encryption of NetBackup cloud storage.

See About external KMS for encryption of NetBackup cloud storage.

More information about NetBackup KMS and external KMS is available.

See the NetBackup Security and Encryption Guide for more information.:
