(Botan: Crypto and TLS for Modern C++
Botan (Japanese for peony flower) is a C++ cryptography library released under the
permissive Simplified BSD <https://botan.randombit.net/license.txt>_ license.
Botan's goal is to be the best option for cryptography in C++ by offering the
tools necessary to implement a range of practical systems, such as TLS protocol,
X.509 certificates, modern AEAD ciphers, PKCS#11 and TPM hardware support,
password hashing, and post quantum crypto schemes. A Python binding is included,
and several other language bindings <https://github.com/randombit/botan/wiki/Language-Bindings>_ are available.
It is used in many open source and commercial products <https://github.com/randombit/botan/wiki/Users>.
The library is accompanied by a featureful
command line interface <https://botan.randombit.net/handbook/cli.html>.
See the documentation <https://botan.randombit.net/handbook>_ for more
information about included features.
Development is coordinated on GitHub <https://github.com/randombit/botan>_
and contributions are welcome. If you need help, please open an issue on
GitHub <https://github.com/randombit/botan/issues>_ or email the
botan-devel mailing list <https://lists.randombit.net/mailman/listinfo/botan-devel/>.
New releases are announced on the botan-announce mailing list <https://lists.randombit.net/mailman/listinfo/botan-announce/>.
If you think you have found a security issue, see the security page <https://botan.randombit.net/security.html>_ for contact information.
The latest release is
2.13.0 <https://botan.randombit.net/releases/Botan-2.13.0.tar.xz>_
(sig) <https://botan.randombit.net/releases/Botan-2.13.0.tar.xz.asc>,
released on 2020-01-06.
All releases are signed with a PGP key <https://botan.randombit.net/pgpkey.txt>.
See the release notes <https://botan.randombit.net/news.html>_ for
what is new. Botan is also available through most
distributions <https://github.com/randombit/botan/wiki/Distros>_
such as Fedora, Debian, Arch and Homebrew.

Transport Layer Security (TLS) Protocol
- TLS v1.0, v1.1, and v1.2. The broken SSLv3 protocol is no longer supported.
- DTLS v1.0 and v1.2 are adaptations of TLS to datagram operation.
- Supported extensions include session tickets, SNI, ALPN, OCSP stapling,
encrypt-then-mac CBC, and extended master secret. - Supports authentication using preshared keys (PSK) or passwords (SRP)
- Supports record encryption with ChaCha20Poly1305, AES/OCB, AES/GCM, AES/CCM,
Camellia/GCM as well as legacy CBC ciphersuites. - Key exchange using CECPQ1, ECDH, FFDHE, or RSA
Public Key Infrastructure
- X.509v3 certificates and CRL creation and handling
- PKIX certificate path validation, including name constraints.
- OCSP request creation and response handling
- PKCS #10 certificate request generation and processing
- Access to Windows, macOS and Unix system certificate stores
- SQL database backed certificate store
Public Key Cryptography
- RSA signatures and encryption
- DH and ECDH key agreement
- Signature schemes ECDSA, DSA, Ed25519, ECGDSA, ECKCDSA, SM2, GOST 34.10
- Post-quantum signature scheme XMSS
- Post-quantum key agreement schemes McEliece and NewHope
- ElGamal encryption
- Padding schemes OAEP, PSS, PKCS #1 v1.5, X9.31
Ciphers, hashes, MACs, and checksums
