PQ-crypto-test-app

School project orientated around post-quantum cryptography.

Features (using various PQ algorithms from pqcrypto library)

• key generation
• PK encryption + decryption
• digital signing + verification
• performance statistics and algorithm comparison
• generated keypairs can be stored and re-used from file encrypted with AES-GCM using a master password

Usage

• run gui/main.py with python interpreter

HOW TO BUILD PQCRYPTO DIRECTLY

1. unpack ".tar.gz" file into the repozitory folder (default name of folder: "pqcrypto-0.1.3")
2. go to terminal, cd into the "pqcrypto-0.1.3" folder and run script:

python setup.py install --prefix=

• should be folder where "lib" (with "pythonX.X"->"site-packages") is located for your python
• for me, it was virtual environment folder right in this repository folder
• script "setup.py" looks into this , goes to lib->pythonX.X->site-packages and installs pqcrypto there + builds files inside "pqcrypto-0.1.3" folder
