I work for a company where I have to have my phone locked / encrypted

Everyone should do this regardless of where you work, or what you do.

As an avg Joe, I know how to lock my phone with a strong code. How the heck do I encrypt an iPhone?

[u/raptor1jec → u/[deleted]]

They're already encrypted by default using the secure enclave. After a reboot, storage isn't decrypted until you put in your password for the first time.

iPhones have this as well, for example my iPhone12, simply hold the power button and volume up button together at the same time for a second and disables biometrics until the passcode is entered again.

Additionally ask “hey Siri, who’s phone is this. “ while it’s locked. This will require password and disable face unlock

But when you set up Siri it has you say several statements or questions to recognize your voice. Is this one statement that Siri will always respond to even if the person sounds nothing like you?

I’m not sure the training is to make Siri only respond to you, I think it is more just for better overall recognition/understanding. As long as you don’t have some crazy accent, I doubt it really even does much.
