1. A method, said method comprising:
generating a first hardware encrypted data set by encrypting a first data set, wherein
said first data set comprises a first set of data backed up at a first time,said encrypting said first data set is performed using a first key,said encrypting said first data set is performed using a dedicated encryption circuit that is configured to implement a plurality of hardware-based encryption techniques, andsaid encrypting is performed using an initial data structure that comprises information regarding the first key, wherein
said information comprises a hash of the first key to retrieve the first key; selecting a first hardware-based backup technique of a plurality of hardware-based backup techniques, wherein
said first hardware-based backup technique is selected based on
identifying a backup preference associated with a first backup client, anddetermining a connection status associated with said first backup client; storing a first hardware-encrypted data set in a first storage medium; generating an another hardware encrypted data set by encrypting a first portion and a second portion of an another data set, wherein
said encrypting is performed using an another key, andsaid encrypting of said first and said second portions is performed using disparate hardware-based encryption techniques of said plurality of hardware-based encryption techniques; and storing said first portion of said another data set in said first storage medium, and upon performance of a media-span process, storing said second portion of said another data set in a second storage medium, wherein
the second storage medium comprises
an unencrypted data structure linking the second storage medium to the first storage medium. |
