First, Welcome to Windows Central you will find all help you need right here. The backup's can be done by going to settings, backup and make sure they are on Apps, Photos & Video, Text Messages.
There is many third party apps in the store to help you with hiding pictures & files.

* try EASY TRANSFER or WI-FI FILE SHARER app to transfer files thru wifi.
* MATRIX VAULT, PRIVATE, HURT LOCKER etc.. helps to hide pics and vids.
* try MOLIPLAYER or CCPLAYER to play all vid formats. hold on VLC will be releases in a few days

As others said, you can take backup from settings > backup.
For Wi-Fi transfer use easy transfer app, you would be able to share files from pc/phone to phone/tablet etc.
Windows phone doesn't get a virus as Android does, so don't be afraid to explore WP.
For hiding photos, videos, the simplest way is to download the files app from Microsoft. If you move your photos, videos or any other files to map data, it wont be accessible via gallery. This trick works on all OSes!
