4.3.17 Online backup protection
To protect your data on Acronis Cloud from unauthorized access, you can use encryption. In this
case, your data will be stored on Acronis Cloud in an encrypted form. To encrypt and decrypt your
data, the program needs the password, that you should specify when you configure the online
backup. You can specify any set of characters you like. Note that the password is case-sensitive.
Warning! A password of an online backup cannot be retrieved. Please memorize the password
that you specify for backup protection.
While attempting to access the encrypted data, the program asks you to enter the password.
Note that you cannot set or change the password for a pre-existing online backup.
4.3.18 Acronis Cloud data center
This option is only available for online backup.
When you create a backup to Acronis Cloud, your data is uploaded to one of the Acronis data centers
located in different countries. Initially, the data center is defined as the one closest to your location
when you create your Acronis account. Afterwards, your online backups and synced files are stored
in the same data center, by default.
We recommend that you set the data center for a backup manually, when you are in a different
country and your default data center is not the closest to your current location. This will significantly
increase the data upload rate.
Note: You cannot change the data center for a pre-existing backup.
