⚛️ Implementando CRYSTALS-Kyber1024 + Dilithium5 + ChaCha20-Poly1305 | Post-Quantum Cryptography en Python 🐍 | QuantumARK v2.0 🔐

👨‍💻 About Me
Hey there! I'm Mau, a passionate student from Mexico 🇲🇽 about to start university, diving deep into the fascinating world of cryptography and quantum computing. At just 18, I've built something that could change how we protect data in the quantum era!

⚛️ QuantumARK v2.0: My Quantum Journey
I created QuantumARK - a comprehensive file encryptor implementing complete NIST Post-Quantum Cryptography standards. This isn't just a student project; it's a real solution for the upcoming quantum threat.

🛡️ What makes it special:
✅ CRYSTALS-Kyber1024 - Quantum-resistant key exchange (NIST standard)
✅ CRYSTALS-Dilithium5 - Post-quantum digital signatures
✅ ChaCha20-Poly1305 - Quantum-safe symmetric encryption
✅ Complete RSA elimination - No more Shor's algorithm vulnerabilities
✅ HKDF-SHA3-256 - Advanced key derivation

📊 Impact & Vision:
While RSA-4096 and ECDSA will be completely vulnerable to quantum computers by 2030-2040, QuantumARK provides protection until 2100+. I'm preparing for "Q-Day" - the day quantum computers break current encryption.

🎓 My Learning Journey
"Sorry for any mistakes, still learning every day!" - This is my motto. As a Mexican student passionate about cybersecurity, I believe in continuous learning and open-source contribution. QuantumARK represents hundreds of hours studying lattice-based cryptography, NIST standards, and Python implementation.

🤝 Open to every feedback
I'm always eager to learn and improve! If you have experience with cryptography, Python development, or security auditing, I'd love your help:

🔍 Code review - Help me spot potential issues or improvements
🐛 Bug reports - Found something that doesn't work as expected?
💡 Feedback - Suggestions for better implementation or new features
📚 Learning together - Share knowledge about post-quantum cryptography

Every contribution helps me grow as a developer.
