# The security/botan port

## botan-1.10.16p1 – portable, easy to use, and efficient C++ crypto library

## Description

    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.
