Hi 
 

Does symantec Netbackup capacity based licenses include data encryption when sending backups to tapes? We know that with Capacity Based license include all the features except NDMP; but does it include Data Encryption as well?

Thank you in advanced.

just to corret OP

 

Platform based complete edition includes everything except MSEO (Media server encryption option) which has be to purchased seperately

NDMP is included in platform based complete edition

 

There are two variants of capacity editions

complete edition and NDMP edition

For MSEO how it differs from native encryption of NBU offering please check security and ecnryption guide of NBU

 

MSEO performs encryption where as KMS manages encryption keys. (Although MSEO has its own database to manage keys)

If you plan to use tape drive hardware based encryption built-in LTO4 and newer you are ready to go with the capacity based license. KMS is part of the base Netbackup installation.

Every easy to configure and use.
