With Veeam v12 and tape I need to look at integration into a key management system like CipherTrust or SKLM. Is there a compatibility list of products Veeam supports?
I know for other software that uses tape we use Fornetix for KMIP tape encryption. I am unsure if Veeam supports KMIP or not and will do some searching. You can encrypt tapes with a strong password in the Veeam software itself that I know.

Unfortunately, as far as I am aware, there isn’t one. I don’t think Veeam actually does support interoperability with a Key Management System but I could be wrong.

thanks Chris.
Dell tape libraries do integrate directly with SKLM so might be best just to use this route rather than Veeam. This means tape libs can control encryption then use SKLM for key mgmt

Just be sure to test it because I cannot seem to find any documentation on KMIP support with Veeam.
We will support KMS for encryption keys over KMIP 1.4 and earlier in our upcoming version.
Tape encryption will be supported.
You can register for our Event tomorrow to learn more about it:

Thanks, as always, Fabian!
thanks Fabian and yes I will be on the session tomorrow
Hello
I updated my comment.
Supported KMIP version will be 1.4 or earlier.
Best,

Hello
An update for the support of KMS server. We support in v12.1 KMIP profile 1.4 or earlier. I have updated my comment above to reflect that change.
https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/kms_requirements.html?ver=120
- Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) Profile v1.4 or earlier versions. Later versions of KMIP Profiles are not supported by Veeam Backup & Replication.
Best,
Fabian
