Digital DNA lifecycle security and privacy: an overview

Abstract: DNA sequencing technologies have advanced significantly in the last few years leading to advancements in biomedical research which has improved personalised medicine and the discovery of new treatments for diseases. Sequencing technology advancement has also reduced the cost of DNA sequencing, which has led to the rise of direct-to-consumer (DTC) sequencing, e.g. 23andme.com, ancestry.co.uk, etc. In the meantime, concerns have emerged over privacy and security in collecting, handling, analysing and sharing DNA… Show more

“…It also requires that subjects voluntarily provide a DNA sample. Although some may be happy to do this, it is unarguably the case that a DNA sample represents a large quantity of personal information which is potentially sensitive in a number of ways (Alsaffar, Hasan, McStay, & Sedky, 2022). An individual's genetic profile provides at least some information about their risk of a large number of health conditions.…”
