Abstract
This publication describes the new paradigm of cognitive cryptography. This new scientific area is
marked by a new generation of information systems, focused on developing intelligent cryptographic
protocols and procedures utilising cognitive information processing approaches. Such systems are
mainly designed to use the semantic analysis of encrypted data to select the most appropriate method
of its encryption. Our paper presents a possible application of such techniques in intelligent information
sharing or visual cryptography. Additionally, some cryptographic solutions inspired by
biological models are presented.
