It currently supports the following algorithms: +Botan is a crypto library written in C++. It provides a variety of +cryptographic algorithms, including common ones such as AES, MD5, SHA, +HMAC, RSA, Diffie-Hellman, DSA, and ECDSA, as well as many others that +are more obscure or specialized. It also offers X.509v3 certificates +and CRLs, and PKCS #10 certificate requests. A message processing +system that uses a filter/pipeline metaphor allows for many common +cryptographic tasks to be completed with just a few lines of code. +Assembly optimizations for common CPUs, including x86, x86-64, and +PowerPC, offers further speedups for critical tasks such as SHA-1 +hashing and multiple precision integer operations. - Public Key Algorithms: Diffie-Hellman, DSA, ElGamal, Nyberg-Rueppel, - Rabin-Williams, RSA - Block Ciphers: Blowfish, CAST256, CAST5, CS-Cipher, DES, GOST, IDEA, - Lion, Luby-Rackoff, MISTY1, RC2, RC5, RC6, Rijndael, SAFER-SK128, - Serpent, SHARK, Skipjack, Square, TEA, Threeway, Twofish, XTEA - Stream Ciphers: ARC4, ISAAC, SEAL - Hash Functions: HAVAL, MD2, MD4, MD5, RIPEMD-128, RIPEMD-160, SHA-1, - SHA2-256, SHA2-512, Tiger, Whirlpool - MACs: EMAC, HMAC, MD5-MAC, ANSI X9.19 MAC - Misc: Adler32, CRC24, CRC32, Randpool, X9.17 RNG - Cipher Modes: CBC w/ Padding, CTS, CFB, OFB, Counter +Botan is licensed under the same permissive terms as FreeBSD itself.
