EFS self-signed certificates, when using ECC, will use 256-bit key by default. EFS can be configured to use 1K/2k/4k/8k/16k-bit keys when using self-signed RSA certificates, or 256/384/521-bit keys when using ECC certificates. Windows 10 version 1607 and Windows Server 2016. Add EFS support on FAT and exFAT. [16]
