  • FASTA encryption and decryption tool
  • AES symmetric encryption, with very fast processing times
  • Applicable to any FASTA file (DNA sequences with headers)
  • Compact 3 DNA bases into 1 char, using a fixed block size packing. When compared with general encryption tools it allows to reduce the storage (~3x), without creating security problems such as those derived from CRIME attacks.
