“…As shown in Table 8, the best algorithms in term of BPN for data hiding that based on DNA sequences is in [21][22][23] for hiding 20K Bytes data, since it uses a DNA bases to hide on maximum only two bits, while the suggested method doubles the hiding capacity (average BPN) by employing a base to hide up to four bits. The payload of the proposed method is Zero, since no expansion in the faked protein sequence after the embedding process.…”

“…The number of the secret bits that can be embedded in the reference DNA sequence in each nucleotide(bpn) for this method is 2 bits which is low, the cracking probability is higher than our method, and when the size of the data is very large, the genetic algorithm takes a long time to find the hiding positions. Nabi et al [23] proposed two new methods based on DNA to hide and encrypt the data, the substitution and insertion methods. In the substitution method, the secret data is concealed in a DNA sequence by substituting each nucleotide base with another nucleotide base based on two bits of the secret data.…”

With the rapid advancement of the digital network, information technology, digital libraries, and especially the services of the world wide web, many types of information can be retrieved at any time. Thus, the issue of security has become one of the most important problems in distributing new information. It is essential to protect this information while it is passing through unsecured channels. Steganography offers a powerful approach to hiding confidential data in suitable media vectors such as images, audio files, text files, and video files. In the field of steganography, the most common measurements of hiding the intended data in a cover media are hiding capacity, cracking probability, payload, and bit per nucleotide (bpn), and these measurements are considered the most of the prime challenges in the field of steganography. The main objective of this research is to provide a novel data hiding schema using protein-based steganography that provides good security performance measurement and outperforms DNA-based steganography approaches, where protein sequences are not utilized for steganography purposes. According to the proposed method, each byte of the secret message is partitioned into two 4-bit parts, and then these parts are converted into the decimal system. Finally, the decimal values of the secret message are randomly included in the cover protein sites using a pseudo random number generator (PRNG) for each cover protein base value instead of being sequentially embedded in the cover protein bases. It is considered that this random distribution increases system security. The proposed method works with a one-digit protein decimal coding rule (PDCR), and the byte of the message will be embedded in two bases of amino acids. From the experimental results, it has been found that the proposed method preserves the reference protein's original function (zero modification rate in the original protein sequence) and achieves a very high hiding capacity of 4 bpn when the sequence's bases are entirely data-embedded, a very low cracking probability, and a payload of zero. Furthermore, the proposed method saves 50% of the bandwidth compared with the other existing technique.

Information security is a major source of worry, especially in light of the rapid expansion of internet use in recent years. As a result of this expansion, there have been incidences of illegal access, which have been mitigated by the adoption of a variety of secure communication protocols, including encryption and data concealment. DNA's bio-molecular properties have seen an uptick in popularity as a carrier for cryptography and data hiding in recent years. when information needs to be hidden. Therefore, DNA bases are utilized as information carriers in the data concealing strategy to increase safety. DNA-based steganography and cryptography combine a biological property with conventional methods to provide an algorithm with increased security. Because of their ability to maintain their chemical and biological characteristics, DNA sequences also have a high data capacity.

Information security is a significant cause for concern, mainly because of the explosive growth in internet usage over the last few years. Due to this growth, there have been occurrences of unauthorized access, which have been reduced thanks to “using a range of secure communication protocols, such as encryption and data concealment”. Using DNA's bio-molecular capabilities, the usage of DNA as a carrier for encryption and data concealing has increased in recent years. The realization that DNA may function as a transport medium sparked this movement. In this study, we first examine and briefly outline the evolution of the present DNA coding system. After that, the several ways DNA has been used to enhance encryption techniques are categorized. The benefits and drawbacks of these algorithms and the most recent advancements in DNA-based encryption techniques are discussed. Finally, we provide our thoughts on the potential future of DNA-based encryption algorithms.
