🚀 Feature Request: Post-Quantum Encryption

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Current encryption methods like RSA and ECC are vulnerable to future quantum computers, which could break them, putting sensitive data at risk.

Describe the solution you'd like

Integrate Post-Quantum Encryption algorithms such as lattice-based (Kyber, NTRU), hash-based (XMSS, SPHINCS), or code-based (McEliece) to secure data against quantum attacks.

Describe alternatives you've considered

  • Increasing key sizes: Only delays the issue but won’t protect against quantum threats.
  • Hybrid encryption: Combining traditional and quantum-safe methods, but adds complexity.

Additional context

NIST's Post-Quantum Cryptography Standardization efforts can guide us in selecting future-proof algorithms.
