Abstract

This dataset contains the experimental results and the modular source code developed for the Quantum Privacy Analyzer (QPA) prototype. The project evaluates the performance of Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) algorithms, specifically ML-KEM (Kyber) and ML-DSA (Dilithium), against high-security classical baselines (RSA-4096 and ECDSA P-256). The collected data provides a comprehensive comparison of computational overhead (CPU execution time) and network impact, specifically analyzing how the increased size of PQC cryptographic objects affects TCP/IP communication and fragmentation. This repository supports research into Quantum Agility and the practical transition to quantum-resistant secure communications.
