Abstract

Data storage is becoming a crucial issue in modern day age of computers. The storage technologies and medium are trying to cope with the demand generated in the market due to growing storage requirement with more advanced technological development. The storage is also governed with the need for secure and efficient storage for which the technology people are striving. The use of the DNA technology in the various fields has created interest for the technology savvy to find and use it in storage medium. The use of the DNA for the storage medium is considered to be of utmost relevance in modern day era. Considering the above facts, the authors were motivated to carry out an extensive survey, classifying the literature dealing with the use of DNA as storage medium according to various topics by proposing a classification framework which identified the contribution of information security in securing the DNA as storage medium. This framework which encompasses wide application areas will make way for further quality research in securing the DNA as storage medium by providing the researchers to understand and design more efficient algorithms for secure data storage.
