Blue Coat ProxySG plug-in enhanced to backup encrypted keyring

Restorepoint now makes the process of restoring a Blue Coat ProxySG configuration easier than ever following a hardware failure or when migrating a configurations to a new appliance. The enhanced Blue Coat device plug-in is now able to also backup and recover the encrypted keyring (private key and certificate) which would otherwise be a manual and complex operation – check this Blue Coat Knowledge Base article to see all the additional steps required.

Even the Blue Coat Director does NOT back up the private key and certificate by default (see KB4067).

Restorepoint always backs up this information for you and allows you to restore a configuration in just a couple of clicks.

To ensure you are running the latest Blue Coat plugin, please check that your appliance is up to date (software version 4.0 build 20120815:145016 or later).
