The Commvault software uses AWS permissions to perform protection operations for your Amazon EC2 instances. The software's use of AWS permissions is controlled by the AWS user account (which is represented in Commvault as an Amazon EC2 hypervisor).
The software uses permissions only to access snapshot, volume, and instance configuration information that is required to back up instances to storage, to recover instances, and to clean up intermediate entities that are created by Commvault during those operations. Also, when a user account that has the required administrative privileges requests that a recovered instance overwrite the original instance, the permissions are used to remove the original instance, but only after confirmation from the user.
For IAM policies (in JSON format) that include the required permissions for protecting Amazon EC2 and other AWS resources, see Permission Requirements for AWS Resource Protection.
For AWS information about policies and permissions, see Policies and permissions in IAM in the AWS documentation.
Commvault supports dual-layer server-side encryption with AWS KMS (DSSE-KMS).
