Credentials Manager

You can use the Credentials Manager to create and maintain a list of credentials records that you plan to use to connect to components in the backup infrastructure.

The Credentials Manager lets you create the following types of credentials records:

• Standard account
• Group Managed Service Accounts
• SSH credentials
• SSH private keys
• Kasten Authentication Tokens

To encrypt credentials stored in the configuration database:

• Veeam Backup & Replication on Linux uses ASP.NET Core data protection mechanisms. For more information, see Microsoft Docs.
• Veeam Backup & Replication on Microsoft Windows uses Data Protection API (DPAPI) mechanisms. For more information, see Microsoft Docs.
