Encrypted Proxmox backup on CIFS storage

[Pandry]

Hello!
I was wondering if there's a way to encrypt the backups done via Proxmox (at the Datacenter level) on a CIFS/SMB storage location.

I did see on the [manual](https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/chapter-pvesm.html#storage_pbs_encryption) that PBS support that, but I would love to have it "native" on the Proxmox appliance.

Thanks!
Pandry

No, that's not supported. But you could probably do it via a hook script [0] that runs after the backup is finished.

But an encrypted backup has to be decrypted first for it to be restorable by PVE.
