Assignable Accounts

JetBackup assigns each account with a unique UUID. This ensures that backups are assigned to the correct users and prevents accounts that may have the same name from accessing unassociated backups. JetBackup allows you to reassign accounts with the correct UUID if it detects multiple UUID's with the same username.
