The development of a new image encryption algorithm using real structures of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecules is considered. In the proposed algorithm, the encryption process is performed by confusing and rearranging the pixels of the image based on the coordinates of the chaotic points obtained by the chaos game of DNA symbols, the sequence of DNA symbols, and the encoding rule. The selection of a specific DNA sequence from the Databank and the determination of the encoding rule for DNA symbols is based on the secret key.
