Biometric DNA and ECDLP-based Personal Authentication System: A Superior Posse of Security
Ranbir Soram, Memeta Khomdram · 2010
Over the past few decades there has been numerous advances in the biometric DNA proving technology, most notably among them is the development of PCR-based DNA proving methods. With the time needed to analyze DNA base sequence has dropped from weeks to hours, and with more scientific advancements, the time needed to process samples may drop to as little as few minutes; network security experts have just questioned to use this novel technology to network authentication systems. In this paper we propose a method to utilize biometric DNA information and the intractability of Elliptic Curve Discrete Logarithm Problem (ECDLP) for personal authentication in information security systems. We also present background information on DNA and the elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem, as well as the commonly applied respective mathematics.
