Preface

Starting with version 1.9.0, Unimus supports striping stripping sensitive data from backups of devices.
When this feature is enabled, passwords, pre-shared-keys, and other sensitive data will not be stored in backups of devices.

This can be enabled in "Other settings > Sensitive data stripingstripping".
You can enable striping stripping sensitive data globally ("Default sensitive data striping stripping policy"), or per-Tag.

Per-Tag policy always over-rides the default policy for devices that the Tag applies to.
If a single device belongs to Tags that specify both the "Never strip" and the "Always strip" policy, the more security secure option ("Always strip") will be applied.

Always check for desired behavior

When using this feature, always verify if all sensitive data is properly being stripedstripped.
Also verify if data which should be present is not getting striped stripped when it should not be.

Supported devices

Currently, sensitive data striping stripping is supported on these devices:

...

If a backup is ran on a device which is not yet supported and it's configured for sensitive data stripingstripping, the backup job will fail.
(fail reason will be "SENSITIVE_DATA_STRIPINGSTRIPPING_ERROR")

We are periodically adding support for more devices to the above list.
If you want to use sensitive data striping stripping with any devices not listed above, please let us know.
