.. title:: MBEDTLS_AES_C

.. option:: CONFIG_MBEDTLS_AES_C

*AES   - Advanced Encryption Standard*

Type: ``bool``

Help
====

This setting will enable AES block cipher, including ECB - Electronic Code Book.
Enabling AES will provide a sub-menu which allows for fine grained
configuration of specific cipher support.
Corresponds to MBEDTLS_AES_C setting in mbed TLS config file.
