DNA and DNA Computing in Security Practices – Is the
Future in Our Genes
Abstract
As modern encryption algorithms are broken, the world of information security looks in
new directions to protect the data it transmits. The concept of using DNA computing in
the fields of cryptography and steganography has been identified as a possible technology
that may bring forward a new hope for unbreakable algorithms. Is the fledgling field of
DNA computing the next cornerstone in the world of information security or is our time
better spent following other paths for our data encryption algorithms of the future?
This paper will outline some of the basics of DNA and DNA computing and its use in the
areas of cryptography, steganography and authentication.
Research has been performed in both cryptographic and steganographic situations with
respect to DNA computing but researchers are still looking at much more theory than
practicality. The constraints of its high tech lab requirements and computational
limitations combined with the labour intensive extrapolation means, illustrate that the
field of DNA computing is far from any kind of efficient use in today’s security world.
DNA authentication on the other hand, has exhibited great promise with real world
examples already surfacing on the marketplace today.
DNA authentication practices will grow as the need for fool proof identification of
individuals and items grows as well. The use of DNA computing on the other hand is far
from a reality and the world of information security is better focused on other encryption
technology methods for its future development.
