Backup Encryption Keys¶

Endpoints

Important

This endpoint works with backups of MongoDB databases running FCV 4.0 or earlier. Backups of MongoDB databases running FCV 4.2 or later use the deployment’s encryption setting.

MongoDB Enterprise enables administrators to encrypt backups. Administrators must integrate with a KMIP server. This server generates and manages a master key that Ops Manager uses to encrypt the head databases during a backup operation. MongoDB recommends periodically rotating the KMIP master key for increased security.
