Introduction to Configuration Backup in Crystal Eye XDR
Overview¶
The Crystal Eye XDR provides the option of scheduling regular configuration backups. The backup target can be chosen in advance as per requirements (the prominent backup targets available are Local Backup in the XDR storage and USB backup).
Persistent configuration backup storage provides the much-needed leverage to revert to that backup. This is a useful feature as it allows preserving configuration changes that could otherwise get lost in an event of factory reset.
Scheduling Crystal Eye XDR Configuration Backups¶
All CE XDR Configuration Backup jobs can be scheduled, and the desired backup targets can be selected. The frequency of these backup jobs can be set to Daily, Weekly, or Monthly. The backup files can be stored locally in the CE XDR hard drive, a USB device, RP Cloud, Own Server or Azure Cloud.
