Configuring Remote Backup
By default, HSS backs up the files from the protected directories (excluding specified subdirectories and file types) to the local backup directory you specified when adding protected directories. To protect the local backup files from tampering, you must enable the remote backup function.
If the file and backup directory on the local server become invalid, you can manually obtain the backup file from the remote backup server to restore the tampered websites.
Constraints
Only the servers that are protected by the HSS WTP edition support the operations described in this section.
Prerequisites
The following servers can be used as remote backup servers:

- The remote backup function can be used when the Linux backup server is connected to your cloud server. To ensure a proper backup, you are advised to select a backup server on the same intranet as your cloud server.
- You are advised to use intranet servers least exposed to attacks as the remote backup servers.
