As the realms of DNA computing and cryptographic techniques converge, the need for secure and privacy-preserving data processing in DNA-based computations becomes paramount. This research explores the integration of homomorphic encryption, a revolutionary cryptographic paradigm, into DNA computing environments. Termed as "Cryptogenomic Shield," this approach aims to fortify the confidentiality and integrity of genetic information during outsourced data processing. By allowing computations on encrypted DNA sequences without decryption, homomorphic encryption addresses the unique challenges posed by the inherently sensitive and complex nature of genetic data. This study delves into the theoretical foundations, implementation methodologies, and practical implications of Cryptogenomic Shield, presenting a novel avenue for advancing the security landscape of DNA computing.
