password protected backups
Open Discussion
Hello, i would suggest/request that in this day'n age of IT security, generated Cpanel & WHM backups need be password/key protected (or at least provide the option for it).
Backups are of the utmost importance to any server admin, yet lacking a password, one faces the chance that these files may fall in the wrong hands and simply copy all the info unto a new server.
Please make this possible.
Thank you,
I like this idea 
cPanel, WebHost Manager and WHM are registered trademarks of cPanel, L.L.C. for providing its computer software that facilitates the management and configuration of Internet web servers.
It would be really useful, mainly when we store the backups on spare servers or online accounts like dropbox.

This is useful, I don't want to access to my backup files on another backup server by someone.

Encryption seems to be a topic which is completely avoided in Cpanel.
Isn't even a feature many users are look for. I remember posting something about that in the forum 8-9 years ago and it got no traction. Seems to be OK for most resellers/users to share the data.
