<h3><font color=#e00000><strong>OpenBSD Cryptography</strong></font></h3>

The OpenBSD project is based in Canada.<p>

The <a href=href=http://axion.physics.ubc.ca/ECL.html>Export Control
List of Canada</a> places no restriction on the export of
cryptographic software, and is in fact even more explicit about the
free export of freely-available cryptographic software.<p>

Hence the OpenBSD project has cryptography into numerous places in
the operating system:<p>

<ul>
<li>Strong blowfish based password entries.
<li>KerberosIV fully integrated.
<li>IPSEC with 10+ cyphers integrated into the OS.
<li>IPSEC Photuris daemon
<li>Strong random number components used in numerous places. 
<li>All the normal DES code in libc, where it belongs.
<li>(What have I missed?)
</ul>
