Yes, Amazon EFS supports both encryption at rest and in transit: * **Encryption at rest:** Enabled when creating a file system, it uses industry-standard AES-256 to encrypt data on the server side. * **Encryption in transit:** Achieved by setting up a TLS tunnel during file system mounting using the EFS mount helper.
