Encrypting datafile and backups

Hi
I read good article on EFS
http://www.sqlservercentral.com/colu...enting_efs.asp
How do you do encryption of backups
I found that the backup made from a encrypted data if recovered are not
encrypted as it is OS encrytion and not database.
Also another interesting question on same line:
If the domain account used to start the sqlserver and encryption is deleted
and recreated with the same login/password will that user be able to decrypt
the files.

Also if we can recover the encrypted file

You can use a tool like LiteSpeed to encrypt your backups (url below).

EFS is based on Certificates. You loose the Certificate, you loose access to
your data. If you re-set a user's pasword, his certificates become invalid.
