I was attempting to enable CONFIG_CMD_AES and I though it would be
under security support. Is there any reason why that option would
not be enabled or available?
Search under "Security commands"...
from "cmd/Kconfig":
....
1975 menu "Security commands"
1976 config CMD_AES
1977         bool "Enable the 'aes' command"
1978         select AES
1979         help
1980           This provides a means to encrypt and decrypt data using the AES
1981           (Advanced Encryption Standard). This algorithm uses a symetric key
1982           and is widely used as a streaming cipher. Different key lengths are
1983           supported by the algorithm but this command only supports 128 bits
1984           at present.

A Stanford research group advertised for participants in a  study  of
obsessive-compulsive  disorder. They were looking for therapy clients
who had been diagnosed with this disorder. The  response  was  grati-
fying;  they  got  3,000 responses about three days after the ad came
out. All from the same person.
