“…Researchers in 2010 published a DNA-based Cryptography for Secure Mobile Networks scheme [11] in which binary plaintext is converted to a DNA text via a substitution code, introns are inserted into DNA text and a key is passed to the receiver over a secure channel to provide the details of the intron insertion. The new DNA text is transcribed into a mRNA code utilizing only the exons and the exons are translated into an amino acid protein code requiring a second, secure transfer of translation data so that the receiver can decode the protein code back to the mRNA, mRNA back to DNA sequence, and the DNA sequence stripped of the introns and converted back to the original binary plaintext.…”

Processes of gene expression such as regulation of transcription by the general transcription complex can be used to create hard cryptographic protocols which should not be breakable by common cipherattack methodologies. The eukaryotic processes of gene expression permit expansion of DNA cryptography into complex networks of transcriptional and translational coding interactions. I describe a method of coding messages into genes and their regulatory sequences, transcription products, regulatory protein complexes, transcription proteins, translation proteins and other required sequences. These codes then serve as the basis for a cryptographic model based on the processes of gene expression. The protocol provides a hierarchal structure that extends from the initial coding of a message into a DNA code (ciphergene), through transcription and ultimately translation into a protein code (cipherprotein). The security is based upon unique knowledge of the DNA coding process, all of the regulatory codes required for expression, and their interactions. This results in a set of cryptographic protocols that is capable of securing data at rest, data in motion and providing an evolvable form of security between two or more parties. The conclusion is that implementation of these protocols will enhance security and substantially burden cyberattackers to develop new forms of countermeasures.

Pseudo biotic cryptography will be an advanced crypto-analytic model, as it is presently increasing bimolecular computation, since its process energize and can verify future generation network computing. Nowadays, the data protection has become very important such that an unbreakable encryption technology should be designed in order to provide security for the data. A new paradigm in cryptography to secure information was introduced through biological structure called central dogma of molecular biology. DNA cryptographic system gains more popularity with enhanced features like, high storage capacity, security level, and more time to break the crypto system. This paper proposes new pseudo biotic DNA based crypto mechanism. This DNA computing created good path for storing large information, correspondence and high energy efficiency. The proposed method, message is converted to Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA), Messenger Ribonucleic acid (MRNA), and Transpose Ribonucleic acid (TRNA) standards. A part of converted message is spliced unsymmetrical to produce a random key at each stage. The sliced unsymmetrical key generation mechanism relies on the genetic information. The process involves in splicing the message and generating multiple sequence of keys from different stages which are random in order to enhance the degree of security. Cracking possibility of the algorithm is less due to pseudo random key generation mechanism and cipher both were merged in protein form. Proposed Algorithm utilizes less public key infrastructure, and communicated between Alice and Bob. Algorithm was designed, using Verilog HDL; Synthesized & Simulated in Vivado and hardware implementation is targeted to Zync FPGA architecture.

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.
