Overview: Backing up and restoring VSatellites¶

VSatellites are designed to be light-weight and disposable (stateless). This is so that you can easily add, remove and reconnect them from the VSatellites page ( TLS Protect Cloud > Settings > VSatellites).

To be able to recover from a catastrophic loss of connections between all of your VSatellites and TLS Protect Cloud, it's critical that you back up the data encryption key (DEK). The DEK plays a critical role in recovering from just such a scenario.
