===Encryption=== The encryption of FASTA files can be performed with various tools, including Cryfa and Genozip. Cryfa uses AES encryption and also enables data compression.<ref name="CRYFA1">{{cite book | vauthors = Pratas D, Hosseini M, Pinho A | chapter= Cryfa: a tool to compact and encrypt FASTA files |title=11th International Conference on Practical Applications of Computational Biology & Bioinformatics (PACBB) |publisher=Springer| volume = 616|date=2017|pages=305β312|doi=10.1007/978-3-319-60816-7_37| series = Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing| isbn = 978-3-319-60815-0}}</ref><ref name="CRYFA2">{{Cite journal |last1=Hosseini |first1=Morteza |last2=Pratas |first2=Diogo |last3=Pinho |first3=Armando J |date=2019-01-01 |editor-last=Berger |editor-first=Bonnie |title=Cryfa: a secure encryption tool for genomic data |url=https://academic.oup.com/bioinformatics/article/35/1/146/5055587 |journal=Bioinformatics |language=en |volume=35 |issue=1 |pages=146β148 |doi=10.1093/bioinformatics/bty645 |issn=1367-4803 |pmc=6298042 |pmid=30020420}}</ref> Similarly, Genozip can encrypt FASTA files with AES-256 during compression.<ref name="Genozip" />
