Using cross-account backups, customers can copy backups across accounts within their AWS Organizations.
With cross-account backup in AWS Backup, customers can copy data from the backup vault of the source account to the backup vaults of destination accounts, either on-demand or as part of a scheduled backup plan. These copies provide customers an additional layer of protection should the source account experience disruption from accidental or malicious deletion, disaster, or ransomware. If your original backup is inadvertently deleted, you can copy the backup from its destination account to its source account, and then start the restore.
AWS Backup supports cross-account backup in US East (N Virginia, Ohio), US West (North California, Oregon), Africa (Cape Town), Asia Pacific (Hong Kong, Hyderabad, Jakarta, Mumbai, Osaka, Seoul, Singapore, Sydney, Tokyo), Canada (Central), Europe (Frankfurt, Ireland, London, Milan, Paris, Spain, Stockholm, Zurich), Middle East (Bahrain, UAE), South America (Sao Paulo), and the AWS GovCloud (US-East, US-West) Regions.
