Applying CRISPR-Cas9 Off-Target Editing on DNA based Steganography

Author 1: Hong Zhou Author 2: Xiaoli Huan

Different from cryptography which encodes data into an incomprehensible format difficult to decrypt, steganography hides the trace of data and therefore minimizes attention to the hidden data. To hide data, a carrier body must be utilized. In addition to the traditional data carriers including images, audios, and videos, DNA emerges… Read full abstract & cite →
