Encryption at rest

When a file is saved in a Microsoft 365 Group, the file is automatically encrypted while it is stored in the cloud. 

Encryption in transit

When someone downloads or reads/writes a file, the traffic on the network is also always automatically encrypted because the Microsoft 365 service is using HTTPS/SSL/TLS as transport protocols (note that these are encrypted protocols).
