What

A Bacterial security system using unpredicatable and unique combination of fluorescent proteins. The biometric key will be almost unhackable with the minimal use of computer software.

Why

To secure physical customer deposit accounts within banks and other establishments that require high-end security with a delay before the locked appliance can be accessed.

How

Expression of the combination of fluorescent proteins would be modified by interference caused by CRISPR dCAs9 nucleases along with a pool of guideRNAs varying in repression efficiency.

The Problem

Recently, there has been a rise in cyber security breaches

Companies are turning to physical security strategies involving biometric and digital keys to secure their clients' accounts.

Our solution

A randomly assorted biometric which utilises CRISPRi to synthesise a random fluorescent key in E. coli.
