    Should I manually enter the security information in the master database then just create the databases and restore from backups, letting Server 2014 perform the upgrades?

    Yup.

    You've done all the pre-upgrade testing, ensured that nothing breaks on 2014, that there's no code that you're using that is not supported in 2014, that there are no performance regressions due to the changes in the optimiser?
