With respect to the Etrecheck report:
- It identified some software that appears to date from 2016. Unclear what that might be doing or how they are interacting with your system, although I doubt those are causing the kernel panics, each of which is a serious malfunction that the MacOS cannot recover from, so it restarts. Examples include Flip4Mac and Canon ScanGear. Some panics result from software, although often they have to do with hardware.
- One of the panics was associated with backupd, which is Time Machine and an external drive. That leads me to wonder about the hubs you are using, which seem to be used for external drives and some sound equipment? Is that VIA USB 2.0 hub compatible with MacOS Sonoma? Are your hubs and all external devices compatible with Sonoma?

Panics (involuntary restart) can be caused by incompatible things connected to ports and hubs, e.g. older hardware. But I can't tell exactly what is connected to your Mac.
Etrecheck also reported below average performance. That could be due to the Mac distracted with all those external devices, or possible from the VPN, which can be a drag on network performance.
The mention of backupd in the crash report you posted, and its mention in one of the Etrecheck reports for a panic, makes me wonder if one or more of your external drives (or other devices) is causing some sort of conflict, perhaps in the way it is connected.
One test could be to disconnect all external devices and see if the panics are gone. Then you can bring them back one or two at a time to see what causes them to reoccur.
The above does not identify any glaring culprit but are offered mainly in the spirit of pointing you in the direction of a few things for you to check into.
