The advent of digital technology has irrevocably transformed societies, economies, and individual lives. Concomitantly, it has introduced novel challenges, most notably in the realm of information security. DNA cryptography, inspired by the intricate structure of deoxyribonucleic acid, has emerged as a promising field for secure data transmission and storage. This paper explores the fundamental principles of DNA cryptography, including DNA encoding, associated basic and advanced operations, and key generation. Another revolutionary change occurred when chaos theory with its study of complex, unpredictable systems, found an intriguing application in the field of cryptography. By leveraging the inherent randomness and complexity of DNA sequences, along with the chaotic properties of mathematical functions, researchers have developed innovative cryptographic techniques. This review paper delves into the synergistic integration of chaotic functions and DNA cryptography, examining their potential to enhance security and efficiency.
