[user@restore vm1]$ cat private.img.??? | openssl enc -d -pass pass:your_passphrase -aes-256-cbc -out private.img.dec
**Note:** If your backup was encrypted with a cipher algorithm other than `aes-256-cbc`, you must substitute the correct cipher command. This information is contained in the `backup-header` file (see step 3). A complete list of supported cipher algorithms can be found with `openssl list-cipher-algorithms`.
