Welcome to the Apple Support Communities.


iCloud Backups are automatically encrypted.


To encrypt your backups to your Mac or PC, see: About encrypted backups on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support.


If you need to restore from a backup, see: Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup - Apple Support.
