available under the GNU Lesser GPL license.

Important features of the GnuTLS library include:
- Thread safety
- Support for both TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0 protocols
- Support for both X.509 and OpenPGP certificates
- Support for basic parsing and verification of certificates
- Support for SRP for TLS authentication

Additionally GnuTLS provides an emulation API for the widely used OpenSSL
library, to ease integration with existing applications.
