Are newer models of ipads and iphones by default encrypted?<br />
<br />
We need to provide some assurance all of them are encrypted, but I am not sure how to go about this without manually checking. With windows devices i.e. bitlocker laptops, there are tools to prove their security status, but I am not sure how one old go about checking this on ipads and iphones? Can anyone thing of a technique without manually getting them all in to check? <br />
<br />
Can you tell just by looking at the screen when the device is powered on if its encrypted or not, i.e. do the password prompt indicate the device is encrypted, or do you need to do some more analysis after the login process?<br />
<br />
And finally how easy is it for a user to unencrypt/turn off encryption on the device? is this easily done?

The iPhone is a smartphone made by Apple Inc. It and the iPad, along with several other mobile devices from Apple, run on the iOS operating system, which has its own topic, as does the iPad for device-specific questions. Native iOS applications are written in Objective-C or in Swift using the Cocoa Touch frameworks or HTML5 compiled with the help of a package manager such as Adobe PhoneGap; a common IDE is Xcode.

iPad is an iOS-based line of tablet computers built around the device's multi-touch screen, including a virtual keyboard. The iPad includes built-in Wi-Fi and cellular connectivity on select models. An iPad can shoot video, take photos, play music, and perform Internet functions such as web-browsing and emailing. Other functions – games, reference, GPS navigation, social networking, etc. – can be enabled by downloading and installing apps.
