      What should I configure as a key? Typing the characters didn't work.

        you should type a 32 char hexadecimal key ( 0 to 9 A to F )

        Note that if you lose this key, all your backup will be lost, and this can only be changed when the remote is empty

          @florent After setting a 32 character hexadecimal password, encryption was applied.

          My question now is whether encryption is applied only “to the remote drive that acts as a vault” or to each stored file.

            @cairoti The data that is sent and stored on the remote is locally encrypted. The volume as a whole is not encrypted.
