![]() ![]() System Recovery will see the volumes protected by Symantec Endpoint Encryption in plaintext mode in Windows, and resulting backups are also stored in an unencrypted or plaintext state.System and data volumes that are protected with Symantec Endpoint Encryption do not need to be unencrypted before System Recovery can protect them.If only one volume on that disk was backed up, then only one volume will be restored to that disk, potentially resulting in data loss if the disk contained more than one volume originally. As such, when a restore operation from the SRD is performed to that disk, all data on that disk is removed as a part of the restore operation. When a restore is performed using the Recovery Disk (SRD), the target disk will be encrypted and unintelligible. If the system disk (the disk to which Windows is installed) contains multiple volumes, all volumes on that disk should be backed up.Please note the following considerations when using System Recovery to protect systems also running Symantec Endpoint Protection: System Recovery can protect systems also running Symantec Endpoint Encryption and perform bare metal and dissimilar hardware recovery operations of these systems. Using System Recovery alongside Symantec Endpoint Encryption is fully supported by Veritas. It offers scalable, enterprise-wide security that prevents unauthorized access by using strong access control and powerful encryption. Symantec Endpoint Encryption provides advanced encryption for desktops, laptops, and removable storage devices. Using System Recovery with Symantec Endpoint Encryption When using encryption with System Recovery, a small amount of additional time will be required for backup jobs to complete due to the additional encryption processing load. When recovery points are stored to removable media for offsite transport, or stored to remote network or FTP locations outside of an organizations physical boundary, the need for encryption is even greater. ![]() In production environments, it is highly recommended that encryption be used when creating recovery points with System Recovery, even when recovery points are maintained on disk storage within an organizations physical boundary. ![]() Without the correct password, the encrypted recovery point will be inaccessible. It is important to note that there is no “back door” mechanism built into the System Recovery 2013 product to enable access to encrypted recovery points when the user is unable to supply the required password. A password of sufficient length must be provided (password length depends upon the encryption level selected) to enable this capability. Backup jobs can be configured to store recovery points in 128-bit, 192-bit, or 256-bit AES encrypted format. System Recovery 2013 includes built-in software encryption that enables administrators to ensure the security and integrity of their critical business data when it is protected by System Recovery and stored to disk in the form of backup files known as recovery points. In just four simple steps, quickly restore physical and virtual systems to bare metal in minutes, even to dissimilar hardware, virtual environments, or remote locations with Restore Anyware technology.īuilt on 10 years of research and development and with more than 787,000 protected systems, System Recovery is one of the most proven, trusted, and reliable system recovery solutions. System Recovery 2013 offers a superior solution by delivering fast and reliable system recovery that helps minimize downtime and meet recovery time objectives with confidence. However, manual system recovery processes prolong system downtime – and potential losses. To sustain your operations, your business, and even your brand, you need to recover from a system failure as quickly as possible. ![]()
