  1. encypted backups? by RedElf · · Score: 5, Interesting

    After reading the article (I know we're not supposed to do that) I'm a little confused on if you backup an encrypted volume if the backup is also encrypted. If not, doesn't that defeat the whole purpose of encrypting that data in the first place?
