“Encrypted” means a set of data is processed with a password so to make it garbled, to both humans and computers. If data doesn’t involve a password of some shape or form to process, it isn’t “encrypted”, no matter how complicated of a state it might be in.
“Obfuscated” is another word, that is used to describe a thing that, while requiring no password, intentionally made complicated to achieve similar effect.
Hollywood style “the system is encrypted” is not real. That’s total technobabble, I’d say like “soft boiling a dinner plate”, nobody knows what it even amounts to.
