Account configuration
To protect your account with the highest level of security, IDrive EVS configures your account with military standard encryption. This is done by using the configureAccount API.1. Configure With Default Encryption

--enc-type=DEFAULT to set default encryption for your IDrive EVS account. - Username:
IDrive username. If you do not have a valid username Sign up with IDrive. - --password-file=PATH_OF_PSWD_FILE

--password-file=<account password>
Code:
idevsutil --config-account --enc-type=DEFAULT --user=<username> --password-file="MyPassword"
