Feature Request Form Item n: Storage Daemon based encryption Origin: Steve Polyack <korvus at comcast dot net> Date: 16 February 2009 Status: new
What: The ability to encrypt and decrypt data that moves between the storage daemon and its storage devices. Why: Storage daemon based encryption could simplify the encryption of data in an environment where the links between SDs and FDs are local and trusted. Job data could be protected as it is written to tape, DVD, or other media which may be used for off-site storage. Notes: * Environments with many backup clients would not have to maintain secure and safe storage of many keys * This adds the ability to migrate existing tapes to an encrypted format; read the plaintext tape to disk, write the data back out encrypted to another tape. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
