DNA Encryption Algorithms: Scope and Challenges in Symmetric Key Cryptography

Abstract

Data security is now a crucial issue now in our day to day life. The protection of personal identity, personal finances depend on the protection of important and irreplaceable information. Cryptography is the science of converting some readable information into something unreadable format, which are hard to decipher. In modern times, cryptography has adopted a new medium: human DNA. At a time when conventional cryptography has been losing strength to more advanced cryptanalysis, DNA cryptography has added more elements of confusion and diffusion. The use of DNA sequences to encrypt data has strengthened the existing classical encryption algorithms. Thus, DNA cryptography has added another dimension to conventional cryptography. In the present paper the authors have made a systematics study on DNA encryption algorithms and how it can be used along with standard classical encryption algorithms.
