You phone is completely encrypted. .
As long as no one knows your iPhone passcode, your data - including Keychain entries - are VERY securely protected.
Suggest you might consider using a long (longer than six digit) “custom” passcode if you have concerns.
Using Touch/FaceID - if available - further reduces the opportunity for your passcode to be observed.
