Exclude Files from a Backup
This step is optional. You can create exclusion rules that use pattern matching to identify directory or file names that are not to be backed up.
Files which are typically excluded from backups include temporary files, music, movies and other files which are not essential for business needs

Secure the Barracuda Backup Server
This section describes how to secure your Barracuda Backup Servers.
Communication and Configuration
Administration and backup configuration that is set using the Barracuda Backup web interface is sent to the Barracuda Backup Server via a
256-bit encrypted VPN tunnel. The Barracuda Backup Server uses HTTPS port 1194 to send status updates to Barracuda Backup. Data transfers
are initiated by the Barracuda Backup Server rather than by Barracuda Cloud Storage or a remote Barracuda Backup Server.
Data Transmission and Storage
Data transferred between your network and Barracuda Cloud Storage, or between your network and a remote Barracuda Backup Server, is
always encrypted. File parts are AES 256-bit symmetrically encrypted before they are stored, and they remain encrypted until a restore is
requested.
Management Access
Monitor Activity - You can check the user activity page periodically for authentication attempts, changes to settings, and updates to
account information. Go to the page to see all activity for an account, including logins and when a userADMIN > User Activity Reports
has enabled or disabled replication.
Restrict Logins by IP Address - You can restrict access to Barracuda Backup to one or more IP addresses. On the paADMIN > Users
ge, click the graphic ( ) to edit a user account; enter an IP address or a range.Edit
Secure Network Access - HTTPS is always used for secure web browser communication with Barracuda Backup.
Encryption
Data transfers from the local Barracuda Backup Server to a receiving Barracuda Backup Server are always encrypted. Data is stored compressed
and encrypted at rest on the receiving Barracuda Backup Server; the local Barracuda Backup Server does not store in an encrypted or
compressed state. The most aggressive combination of symmetrical and asymmetrical encryption in the industry keeps your data stored in a
format that nobody but you can access. The United States government recently approved 192-bit AES encryption as the preferred method for
protecting top-secret information. The Barracuda Backup solution starts with even higher 256-bit AES encryption.
In addition, Barracuda Networks has developed a proprietary advanced digital cataloging system that breaks down your data into small pieces
and tracks the changes of these parts over time, and strips the original meta identifiers from your files.
As data is transmitted to the remote Barracuda Backup Server, your symmetrically-encrypted data parts are compressed and sent over your
Internet connection with an asymmetrically-encrypted key.
