  1. Botan is a crypto library written in C++. It provides a variety of
  2. cryptographic algorithms, including common ones such as AES, MD5, SHA,
  3. HMAC, RSA, Diffie-Hellman, DSA, and ECDSA, as well as many others that
  4. are more obscure or specialized. It also offers X.509v3 certificates
  5. and CRLs, and PKCS #10 certificate requests. A message processing
  6. system that uses a filter/pipeline metaphor allows for many common
  7. cryptographic tasks to be completed with just a few lines of code.
  8. Assembly optimizations for common CPUs, including x86, x86-64, and
  9. PowerPC, offers further speedups for critical tasks such as SHA-1
  10. hashing and multiple precision integer operations.
