Botan is a
distributed revision control program, the OpenDNSSEC system, and ISC's Kea DHCP server
among other projects.
The project was originally called OpenCL, a name now used by Apple Inc. and Khronos Group for a heterogeneous system programming framework. It was renamed Botan in 2002.[2]
In 2007, the German
ePassports to Botan; the modified version of Botan was released under the name InSiTo.[3]
Starting in 2015, the German Federal Office for Information Security funded a project, which included improving the documentation, test suite and feature set of Botan, culminating in 2017, when it was evaluated and recommended as a library suitable for "applications with increased security requirements".[4]
