1. A system for gathering performance information for post-quantum cryptography (PQC), the system comprising:
quantum computing (QC) detection data generation circuitry configured to:
generate QC detection data;
PQC cryptographic circuitry configured to:
encrypt, by a first neural network, the QC detection data based on a PQC technique, wherein the first neural network is trained to encrypt the QC detection data using the PQC technique;
PQC decryption circuitry configured to:
decrypt, by a second neural network, the encrypted QC detection data, wherein the second neural network is trained to decrypt data; and
PQC cryptographic performance circuitry configured to:
store encryption metadata and decryption metadata as PQC cryptographic performance information associated with the PQC technique, wherein the encryption metadata is generated by encrypting the QC detection data and the decryption metadata is generated by decrypting the encrypted QC detection data.
