When a bioengineer-turned-infosec expert learns of an advanced forensic technique that was used to hunt down the Golden State Killer, he is immediately concerned over how this technique will impact the tens of millions of Americans who’ve undergone genetic testing. Unable to stand by with millions of genetic profiles already online, he teams up with a biomedical engineer to identify the emerging threats to American genomic data. Their findings will lead you to second guess whether genetic testing is really worth it. Meanwhile, a renowned chemist who managed the world’s largest repository of DNA data—the FBI’s CODIS—discusses what the future of DNA analysis will look like at the FBI Laboratory. With fast, cheap, and universally accessible full genome sequencing on the horizon, the race is on to secure our genomes—but is it possible that our insatiable appetite for information might hinder our ability to secure our most intimate datasets?
