Archive Protection; Source Files Exclusion - ACRONIS TRUE IMAGE - FOR MICROSOFT WINDOWS SMALL BUSINESS SERVER User Manual

6.3.1 Archive protection

Password
The preset is no password.
An archive can be protected with a password. To protect the archive data from being
accessed by anybody except you, enter a password and its confirmation into the text
fields. A password should consist of at least eight symbols and contain both letters (in the
upper and lower cases preferably) and numbers to make it more difficult to guess.
If you try to restore data from a password-protected archive, or append an
incremental/differential backup to such an archive, Acronis True Image for Microsoft Small
Business Server will ask for the password in a special window, allowing access only to
authorized users.
Passwords cannot be set for archives created in the Acronis Secure Zone. To protect such
archives, set a password for the zone itself.
Encryption
The preset is 128 bit.
Once the password has been set, you can choose to encrypt the backup for advanced
security with industry-standard AES cryptographic algorithm. The password is used to
generate a key which may differ in length. There are 4 choices: no encryption, 128, 192
and 256-bit encryption. The more the key size, the longer time to cipher and the greater
is your data security.

6.3.2 Source files exclusion

By default, all files from the selected folders will be included in the archive.
You can set default filters for the specific types of files you do not wish to back up. For
example, you may want hidden and system files and folders, as well as files with .~,
.tmp and .bak extensions, not to be stored in the archive.
