The ISC license is a permissive free software license written by the Internet Systems Consortium (ISC). It is functionally equivalent to the Simplified BSD License, with language "made unnecessary by the Berne convention" removed.^[1] Initially used for the ISC's own software releases, it has since become the preferred license of OpenBSD (starting June 2003^[2]), among other projects.^[3]

Before accepting the license as a free software license, the Free Software Foundation (FSF) asked for clarification of the text. In July 2007, as a result, "and distribute" was changed to "and/or distribute".^[4]

A template of this license is:
