Plesk backup Password protection don't work !

[Pascal_Netenvie]

Hi,
All backups configured in our Plesks servers have a password protection.
Despite this when i want to open and extract a file from any archives no password is asked.
So there is no protection ...
Why this ?

Backup are done on Plesk 12.0 or 12.5 on Debian 7 or 8.

Cheers.

If you have set a default server password for FTP backups this might be used for handling backups without any further prompt.

Not it is not ... In each FTP backup settings i have setup a password and it is not used.
And default password for backup exist only in Plesk 12.5 not in 12.0 ...

This feature means that content of backup will be crypted but not that backup will be protected by the password. Not all backup content is crypted, but only critical data, passwords, logins, etc. for example.
The password will be requested for restoring this crypted content of backup.
In your archive you can open xml file like backup_*_info_*.xml and check passwords there. They will be encrypted.

Ohhh ok.
Sad news as databases or files can also contain some sensitive informations ...
This should be a very urgent new feature !

I'm very disappointed too, I restored a whole customer inkl. emails and databases on a Plesk Onyx without the password I used to "encrypt" the backup (also with Onyx).
Can this be implemented in future versions of Plesk?

Please vote for this security feature which should be in every Plesk users interest:
