WISH: automatic encryption of backup #32085

Open JonBendtsen opened 5 days ago

JonBendtsen commented 5 days ago

Feature Request

I wish that Dolibarrs backups (and restores) could automatically be encrypted (and de-crypted), because then the backups can safely be stored at one or more of the virtual drive/cloud operators like: Proton Drive, pCloud, and of course well known entities like Dropbox, Google Drive, iCloud drive, oneDrive, ... OR perhaps even send it as an email?

Perhaps the encrypted backup file could even be automatically uploaded to that drive?

As for the encryption key it could be stored in their password manager or perhaps they could even print it? (if so, let's make a QR code because that is easier to automatically translate back should it be needed).

Use case

Small companies and organizations often doesn't do enough backup, and they might not have the technical knowledge for how to do it, but they still have sensitive data that needs to be stored securely.

Suggested implementation

On the backup page simply have a few more fields with encryption algorithm, the encryption key and so on.
