Store Digital data with live bacteria

A research team said this week it had developed a technology for storing digital data in the DNA of bacteria, which unlike most living organisms can survive for millennia in the right conditions. Japanese researchers have successfully stored messages in the DNA of bacteria. The hardiness of the hay bacillus bacteria ensures the digital data [...]

Cryptography with DNA binary strands

Biotechnological methods can be used for cryptography. Here two different cryptographic approaches based on DNA binary strands are shown. The rst approach shows how DNA binary strands can be used for steganography to provide rapid encryption and decryption. It is shown that DNA steganogra- phy based on DNA binary strands is secure under the assumption [...]
