  How about liboqs from OpenQuantumSafe? It includes an implementation of most PQC primitives proposed to date:

• 2048 Bit RSA and the Year 2030

  Part of the issue as a prospective cryptographic user/consumer is that not only do I not know which algorithm(s) should be used, the most likely library https://github.com/open-quantum-safe/liboqs also explicitly states that it shouldn't be used in production.

  Hybrid deployment (E.G. with ECC using a curve like 25519) is a great recommendation and probably obvious, far more so than picking a winner among the available post quantum possibly safe algorithms.

• Changing default Openssl signature algorithm and key exchange algorithm to use PQC Dilithium and Kyber
  1 project | /r/openssl | 29 May 2023

  Hi everyone! I am currently trying to modify some settings within OpenSSL. My goal is to change the default algorithms that OpenSSL uses for generating certificates and signatures, as well as the key exchange method. Specifically, I want OpenSSL to default to the ones provided by OQS (https://openquantumsafe.org/), Dilithium and Kyber.

• What's the strongest encryption available for Python and which library do you use to implement it?
  5 projects | /r/Python | 3 Sep 2022

  One thing I will mention for "most secure" is that you could add a second layer of encryption based on liboqs which aims to be quantum resistant (mostly important for asymmetric algorithms, symmetric algorithms are already thought to be quantum resistant). We don't know if any of the quantum resistant algorithms are any good or not. They could all be broken, so only use them as a second layer on top of existing encryption schemes, but if you want "the best", then that's what I would do: use standard tools with the biggest variants of the algorithm and then put a layer of post-quantum crypto on top of it.
