securing backup on AIX

[holdahl]

We are currently using the backup command to do filesystem backup on our AIX servers.

Is there any tools in AIX which can be used to secure the backup of a certain filesystem? (a filesystem which contain some sensitive data, which should be secured with some sort of encryption when beeing backed up)

It's a new feature within AIX 6, but if you can't wait you'll have to install a third party tool like

or TSM
