@@ -20,6 +20,7 @@ Azure Backup includes encryption on two levels:
2020
- **Infrastructure-level encryption**: In addition to encrypting your data in the Recovery Services vault using customer-managed keys, you can also choose to have an additional layer of encryption configured on the storage infrastructure. This infrastructure encryption is managed by the platform. Together with encryption at rest using customer-managed keys, it allows two-layer encryption of your backup data. Infrastructure encryption can only be configured if you first choose to use your own keys for encryption at rest. Infrastructure encryption uses platform-managed keys for encrypting data.

- **Encryption specific to the workload being backed up**
2222
- **Azure virtual machine backup**: Azure Backup supports backup of VMs with disks encrypted using [platform-managed keys](../virtual-machines/disk-encryption.md#platform-managed-keys), as well as [customer-managed keys](../virtual-machines/disk-encryption.md#customer-managed-keys) owned and managed by you. In addition, you can also back up your Azure Virtual machines that have their OS or data disks encrypted using [Azure Disk Encryption](backup-azure-vms-encryption.md#encryption-support-using-ade). ADE uses BitLocker for Windows VMs, and DM-Crypt for Linux VMs, to perform in-guest encryption.

- **TDE - enabled database backup is supported**. To restore a TDE-encrypted database to another SQL Server, you need to first [restore the certificate to the destination server](/sql/relational-databases/security/encryption/move-a-tde-protected-database-to-another-sql-server). The backup compression for TDE-enabled databases for SQL Server 2016 and newer versions is available, but at lower transfer size as explained [here](https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/sql-server/backup-compression-for-tde-enabled-databases-important-fixes-in/ba-p/385593).
