If your backups are visible from the targeted systems, you are doing it wrong. Done right, a backup utility at most only uses an agent on the systems to be able to contact them to get the data and the backups are not reachable.

Have a look at how BackupPC works, not even an agent, it accesses network shares to get the data:

I’ll check out backupPC. What is the most common/best practices way to make sure the backup medium isn’t accessible from any endpoints on the network?
