Encrypted backups to the cloud (feddit.org)

How would or do you backup your home server? I don't have enough physical storage (for now) at home to store some backups, so I want to upload it to the cloud. Of course I want the backup to be encrypted, but I don't want to enter the password every time by server does a backup. I am currently using borg on my PC and do it manually. How do I create a encrypted backup without entering the key manually? Do I hardcode it somewhere? Don't really like that. I am also fine with trying other backup software.

If you want I can hit you up with a couple TB S3 compatible block storage against a small compensation covering electricity. I've got about 30TB available of my 64TB that are just doing nothing right now, it's a shame really. I'm running a TrueNAS homelab in a RaidZ2 with battery backup and proper Firewall and IDS/IPS protection (but I'm not a professional). If that's fine DM me.
