I believe that encryption is required on both site. See hereby the question and answer from the training quiz for E20-385, Data Domain Implementation Engineer.
I think the idea of this question is to plan a replacement for their encrypted tape which shipped to the third-party offsite vault, so both production site and DR site Data Domain systems need to be encrypted to fulfill the requirement.
In my situation, the link between sites is not encrypted.
You can find "Encryption Over Wire" in the following picture.
I found some information in this white paper called "EMC Data Domain Encryption" for reference.
It seems the data will be decrypted by the source Data Domain before it sent to the DR site.
My colleague opened a case to EMC support.
If there is any progress, I would like to provide feedback.

Hello,

Is the link between sites encrypted?
Best regards
