+        - Applications requiring process isolation
+        - POSIX application porting

+                
+                MbedTLS provides:
+                - SSL/TLS encryption (TLS 1.0-1.3)
+                - X.509 certificate handling
+                - Secure sockets (HTTPS, MQTTS, etc.)
+                - Cryptographic primitives
+                
+                Features:

+                - Certificate verification
+                - Multiple cipher suites
+                - Session resumption
+                
+                Use cases:

+                - Encrypted data transmission
+                - Cloud service connections (AWS, Azure, etc.)
+                
+                Requirements:
+                - MbedTLS package
+                - Network stack (LwIP or AT)
+                - Sufficient RAM for TLS buffers (~20-40KB)
