Also known as: password-protected backup, iTunes encrypted backup

Last updated August 9, 2026

Definition

An encrypted backup protects local device backups with a password — stronger privacy, and a major hurdle (or authorized target) in mobile forensics.

Real-World Example

Enabling encrypted iPhone backups in Finder/iTunes includes more health and Keychain items than unencrypted backups.
