enable shield encryption in a sandbox

I am working through an encryption trailhead module (https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/spe_admins/spe_admins_set_up?trailmix_creator_id=strailhead&trailmix_slug=architect-sharing-and-visibility) and trying to enable shield encryption in a recently provisioned sandbox.   I gave myself the "Customize Application" and "Manage Encryption Keys" permissions as instructed.   (I am running as a sys admin).   When I got to Setup....Platform Encryption.....Key Management, I see only the following:

Before you can encrypt data, an authorized administrator with the "Manage Encryption Keys" permission must generate a tenant secret.

How do I do that?

thanks in advance,
