So I just have to enable the module and that's it?

If someone asks what technique it uses to encrypt. What will be your answer? Because there is nothing one can see, so one wonders if something is happening or not. Hope you got my point.

Right, I updated the documentation. Here it is:

Required, provide a path in settings.php where encrypted files should be stored:

$settings['encrypted_file_path'] = 'sites/default/files-encrypted';

Next create an encryption key using your desired encryption method. E.g. https://www.drupal.org/project/real_aes.

Then create an encryption profile at /admin/config/system/encryption/profiles that uses the encryption method and key you created.

Finally, enable file encryption on a field-by-field basis on their respective "Field settings" pages by selecting "Encrypted files" as the upload destination.

Now that this issue is closed, review the contribution record.
