An Important Note on Backups

Please be aware that the backup option visible in the Imunify360 interface does not currently work. This is  because JetBackup and Imunify360 are not linked at this time. However, this functionality may be considered for  future updates.

For now, if you need to restore data, please refer to your own, known clean backups. These should always be kept up-to-date and easily accessible, so that you can quickly recover from any security incidents or other issues.
