Secured backup of config files

[Mmiselo]

Good day, I'm using a Cisco ASA firewall. Model: Cisco ASA5540 IOS: asa707-k8 We have been backing up configs to our backup servers using TFTP. Now we want to use a secured way of backing up configs. May you please advise what other ways can one implement. Regards Nelson
