Password Manager
You can use the Password Manager to create and maintain a list of passwords that you plan to use for data encryption. Password management can be helpful in the following situations:
- You want to create new passwords. You can use one password per job or share the same password between several jobs on the backup server.
- You want to edit an existing password, for example, change its hint, or delete a password.
Tip |
Periodical change of passwords is a security best practice. You can create new passwords as often as you need based on your company security needs and regulatory requirements. |
Veeam Backup & Replication encrypts credentials stored in the configuration database using Data Protection API (DPAPI) mechanisms. For more information, see Microsoft Docs.
