Ionic is really all about the view and data management. It’s nothing to do with encryption. You should probably look into platform specific features for that. For example, iOS has a built-in encryption mechanism for files if configured properly.

Other than that, perhaps look for generic encryption questions related to PhoneGap. It might also be best to not use passwords locally and use token based authentication instead. Lots of such docs on Google and StackOverflow.
