genetic security For the public
A revolutionary way to store and compare genetic data without compromising privacy
Encrypting our most precious information
key take aways
When dealing with cryptography, algorithms, formulas and DNA sequences it is very easy to get lost in the detail.
Undisclosed DNA has made software that can encrypt information from DNA Sequences so that they are ‘locked’ but in a way that allows different DNA to still be compared. In short:
1. We extract a Genetic Address™ from sequenced DNA, with our algorithm
2. This unique Genetic Address™ acts like a post or zip code, except in terms of relatedness, rather than physical address
3. The Genetic Address™ is NOT a person’s entire sequenced DNA and can not be reverse engineered to discover their DNA sequence
4. When people share similar amounts of four specific proteins in their DNA they are more likely to be related. The Genetic Address™ is like a key made from using the number of those proteins found. That key would be able to ‘decode’ other encrypted Genetic Addresses which shared a similar key
For example:
If Tony can use his DNA to create a key that successfully decrypts a message encrypted by a key derived from Alice’s DNA, but not one encrypted by a key made from Bob’s DNA, then Tony is related to Alice but not Bob.
If Tony can decrypt a message from Bob’s DNA but not Alice’s, then Tony is related to Bob. If Tony can decrypt both messages, then – surprise – Tony, Alice, and Bob are all related.
