Grammar Encoding in DNA-Like Secret Sharing Infrastructure

Abstract

This publication presents a new technique for splitting secret information based on mathematical linguistics methods and allowing sequences of one or several bits to be coded in the way used in DNA cryptography. This solution represents a novel approach allowing DNA substitutions to be generalised and bit blocks of any length to be coded. Apart from extending the capability of coding in DNA cryptography, the technique presented will also make it possible to develop a new type of a hierarchical secret splitting scheme. Such schemes can be employed when developing new types of cryptographic protocols designed for the intelligent splitting and sharing of secrets.
