I don't think in theory it's possible to back up data.

As in serious case, the keys should be stored in TPM.

the current implementation isn't doing that, but it still has the data saved with DPAPI, so I think only the current person should be able to have access to the data. when back up and restore, it'd become another "person", so it should fail as expected.
