| Summary: | understanding of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) has grown immensely towards
wealth of information about human population diversity. This diversity trait
can be grouped into ethnic, family and gender. Some of these DNA traits are
susceptible to certain diseases, drugs or chemicals. Thus, it is critical to secure
the DNA information especially the relationship between the DNA traits and its
susceptibility. This paper discusses the importance of securing this susceptibility
knowledge in order to provide awareness for people, agencies or organization
that involve in managing genomic information. This awareness can alert the
public on the possibilities of this kind of attack. Several guidelines are also
proposed to safeguard DNA information from undesirable malicious attack. |
