Abstract

Portable genome sequencers are revolutionizing genomic research. However, their reliance on external systems introduces new vulnerabilities that threaten the security of these sequencers. By employing zero-trust principles throughout the sequencing workflow, we can enhance the security of portable sequencing technology.
