The use of "cifrar" doesn't express the idea of
criptography (protection). I checked the dictionaries that
I have around here and a few ones online and "encriptar"
is really wrong, it means "put somebody in a crypt" and
crypt, in this case, has the same idea of "Tales from
the crypt". :))
The dictionary points "criptografar" with the
same idea of "encrypt". In portuguese (specially in
Brazilian Portuguese), sometimes a word is composed
of two other words and sombody put it together a long
time ago (cripto + grafar), in such cases, the word
could inherits some characteristics, specially from
"grafar" (grafia, grafado), but it took sometime until
dicionaries uses this (specially words from technology
field).
The books in Brasil and our literature uses
"criptografar" and its "tenses" and Brazilians should
be used with this terms. :o)

If "criptografar" is the right approach, is
not that bad. :o)) Hope it helps.
Kind regards,
