🔐 Quantum Pose

Exposing hidden threats through the lens of quantum security.


🧭 Overview

Quantum Pose explores how quantum computing can expose, simulate, and defend against cybersecurity vulnerabilities.
The project uses quantum algorithms to model real-world attacks and quantum-inspired defenses to visualize how information integrity can be preserved in the post-quantum era.


💡 Concept

As the world moves toward quantum supremacy, traditional cryptography becomes increasingly vulnerable.
Quantum Pose creates an interactive and visual framework where users can:

  • 🔍 Visualize the process of breaking small cryptographic keys using Shor’s Algorithm.
  • 🧠 Experiment with Grover’s Search to understand quantum speed-up in brute-force attacks.
  • 🛡️ Simulate post-quantum encryption strategies (e.g., lattice-based, hash-based).
  • 📊 Compare performance and resilience between classical and quantum systems.

🧱 How It Works

Layer Description
Quantum Engine Implements algorithms like Shor’s, Grover’s, and Quantum Fourier Transform using Qiskit or Cirq.
Attack Simulation Demonstrates classical vs. quantum attack complexity using small key examples.
Visualization Displays how amplitudes evolve during a quantum attack or defense scenario.
Metrics Dashboard Tracks computation time, probability of success, and entropy change for each algorithm.

🛠️ Tech Stack

  • Quantum Framework: Qiskit or Cirq
  • Frontend (optional): Streamlit or Dash for real-time visualization
