Problem

  • The backup archive contains config.db with its full history, including earlier secrets (ADR 0015).
  • The archive is not encrypted and leaves the file permission protection of the router.

Proposed change

  • Optionally encrypt the backup with a passphrase, like pfSense.
  • Restore asks for the passphrase.

Context

  • Follow-up to #89, see ADR 0021. Not urgent, planned for later.
