So there are 2 sides to this:

  1. Azure Storage is encrypted by default at rest
  2. You can use Azure Storage Service Encryption to encrypt data. You can use REST API\powershell\cli\SDK to do that.

Notice that you would need to rewrite your existing data on the storage to the storage to encrypt it.

Quoting from documentation (emphasis mine):

Existing Data - SSE only encrypts newly created data after the encryption is enabled. If for example you create a new Resource Manager storage account but don't turn on encryption, and then you upload blobs or archived VHDs to that storage account and then turn on SSE, those blobs will not be encrypted unless they are rewritten or copied.

So only data written after you enable SSE gets encrypted. You will need to do as they say and rewrite/copy the files.
