Abstract

Information Technology can be used at all levels to counter attack bioterrorism. This article gives an overview of use of Information Technology for Biosecurity measures. Biosecurity measures involve information with respect to identifying living organisms, security for information retrieval from those databases that store laboratory details, medical, and clinical data, and finally security measures for retrieval using wireless technology. Also, this chapter gives an understanding of different Bioinformatics techniques and tools that are widely used for biosecurity measures.
