He told attendees at the Aspen Security Forum that companies or countries could devise weapons that target weaknesses in a person's genetic code.

"You can actually take someone’s DNA, take, you know, their medical profile and you can target a biological weapon that will kill that person or take them off the battlefield or make them inoperable,” Mr Crow said.
