Description

With a paid plan (using VaultPress), if you view the Jetpack > Settings > Security screen, you'll see something like this:

We should include a link to backups (which is the more likely thing people are interested in currently), and make sure the link is pointing as close as possible to what it's indicating.

One suggestion would be to just change the current label to something that mentions backups, but also to change the link to a more specific destination (e.g. `https://dashboard.vaultpress.com/{site}/backups/`)

Another possibility would be to add a second contextual link, and have them point to their relevant destinations (`/{site}/backups/` and `/{site}/security/`), although this might be overkill.

I lean towards the first approach.

Research direction

Start by locating the Jetpack > Settings > Security screen implementation and the current contextual link. Compare the requested VaultPress destinations for backups and security, then update the label and/or link according to the first approach preferred in the issue. Done means the link points as closely as possible to the relevant backups destination and the Security screen presents accurate contextual wording.
