Big Data Security and Privacy Implementation: The way Ahead
Abstract
Due to the rapid advancement in ICT has made technology to become an essential necessity in most areas of life. The volume of information recorded in data warehouses in the past is starting to grow rapidly over time. Thus the condition of storing information has to change at the same rate in order to reflect such vast growth, and new opportunities for increasing its volume must evolve. The most actively topic by many global information technology companies is big data. At present and in the future as anticipated, one of the engines for the development of information technology is big data. It is due to the fact that a huge amount of information has begun to accumulate for all Internet users. With the advent of global computer networks, particularly the Internet, access to information has been greatly simplified, which has led to an increase in the threat of data security breaches in the absence of measures to protect them. The aim of this research is to investigate the approaches that can be adapted in order to secure such a vast amount of information that is accumulated from Big data. The paper is divided into five sections; including the introduction, issues associated with privacy and security, requirements for data privacy is also highlighted. The consequences of losing privacy are also described. Security problems and decisions are also presented and the conclusion summarizes our findings of the topics associated with big data security challenges.
