Abstract | Security in today's world is one of the most important considerations when one wants to send, receive and store files containing private information or files simply too large for an email attachment. People are becoming more and more dependent on their mobile phones for performing the mentioned critical functionalities. Therefore, it is very important to protect sensitive information when the mobile is lost or stolen. There are many algorithms and methods used to accomplish data security in mobile devices. In general, cryptography and steganography are two common methods used to secure communications. Recently, the field of biology has been combined with the field of cryptography to produce a new field called deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) cryptography which is one of the most powerful tools to solve security problems.This paper proposes a DNA cryptography technique for securing data stored offline in the Android device where users are not aware of the confidentiality of their private data. It is very difficult to predict the one-time pad key that is used as randomly generated and just for one-time. The proposed algorithm uses DNA mapping for dealing with the data as a DNA sequence. Two approaches have been proposed for achieving desired outcomes. |
