I chose Rubrik because they didn’t offer Kerberos or any kind of PKI. Is the security better now?

Nice! Veeam is already top tier B&R software but not having to run a Windows box to use it is a major enhancement.

I just spent a couple weeks rebuilding our veeam setup from scratch and the whole time I was wishing they’d come out with something like this. One less windows server is certainly welcome.
