The Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have spread its roots in almost every application. Owing to their scattered nature of sensor nodes, they are more prone to attacks. There are certain applications e.g. military, where sensor data"s confidentiality requirement during transmission is essential. Cryptography has a vital role for achieving security in WSNs.WSN has resource constraints like memory size, processing speed and energy consumption which bounds the applicability of existing cryptographic algorithms for WSN. Any good security algorithms has higher energy consumption by the nodes, so it"s a need to choose most energy-efficient cryptographic encryption algorithms for WSNs. This paper surveys different asymmetric algorithms such as RSA, Diffie-Hellman, DSA, ECC, hybrid and DNA cryptography. These algorithms are compared based on their key size, strength, weakness, attacks and possible countermeasures in the form of The main components of sensor network are: sensing field, sensor nodes, base station and internet. The main components of sensor node are: controller, transceiver, power supply, memory and one or more sensors. These nodes have the sensing, processing and communication capabilities to monitor the real-world environment. WSNs have the advantage over the traditional networks in terms of scalability, deployment, applications, robustness, etc. As they are ad-hoc in nature, hence can be deployed in any area like military, environmental observation, syndrome surveillance, supply chain management, fire detection, vision enabling, energy automation, building administration, gaming, health and other commercial and home applications [1].Because of its broad usage in multifarious applications, security becomes the primary issue in WSN. When we provide security to sensor networks, it is more complicated than that of MANET because of the resource limitations of sensor nodes. There are some resource constraints such as energy and power supplies, limited memory, computation and communication capabilities. This is the reason that traditional cryptographic techniques cannot be applied on sensor networks, hence demand of more security in WSNs arises. The security requirements in WSN are authentication, confidentiality, availability, integrity and QoS. These conditions should be met while developing the security algorithm.

We address the problem of creating an adaptive source coding algorithm for a genomic encryption protocol using a small alphabet such as the nucleotide bases represented in the genetic code. For codewords derived from an alphabet of N plaintext with probability of occurrence, p, we describe a mapping into a floating point representation of the codewords which are translated into genomic codewords derived from a novel modification of the Shannon-Fano-Elias coding process. Errors in the reverse decoding process are processed through an adaptive, self-correcting codebook to determine the best fit codeword decoding solution. A genetic algorithmic approach to error correction within the source coding is also summarized.

Security of sensitive information at the time of transmission over public channels is one of the critical issues in digital society. The DNA-based cryptography technique is a new paradigm in the cryptography field that is used to protect data during transmission. In this paper we introduce the asymmetric DNA cryptography technique for encrypting and decrypting plain-texts. This technique is based on the concept of data dependency, dynamic encoding and asymmetric cryptosystem (i.e. RSA algorithm). The asymmetric cryptosystem is used solely to initiate the encryption and decryption processes that are completely conducted using DNA computing. The basic idea is to create a dynamic DNA table based on the plaintext, using multi-level security, data dependency and generating 14 dynamic round keys. The proposed technique is implemented using the JAVA platform and its efficiency is examined in terms of avalanche property. The evaluation process proves that the proposed technique outperforms the RSA algorithm in terms of avalanche property.
