Abstract: This is the era of Big Data. Everywhere in almost all the organizations huge volumes of data is being gathered and processed to generate information. As the amount of data is growing so is the need to keep it secure. Any ignorance in this part may result in damaging the reputation of the organization and incurring a huge financial loss. It can bring down a company to its worse state. We will discuss various big data security challenges in this paper. We will also see how we can provide more security to big data and also discuss the future course of action as far as data security is concerned.
I. INTRODUCTION
Era of Big Data has come. Everywhere in almost all the organizations huge volumes of data is being gathered and processed to generate information. As the data in the structured and unstructured form increases in volume, it becomes more and more complex and this complexity is compounded by addition of new applications almost on daily basis.[2, 3, 4].
With data volume is growing exponentially day by day need for big data repositories is also growing, where this massive amount of data can be kept and processed. One cannot imagine having a competitive edge in the business market without the help of big data. [1] Big data helps them gain greater insight by highlighting patterns which usually is impossible to come out from smaller data sets.
Lot of new information tools and techniques are being introduced in that enable organizations to have insights into the massive volume of big data and gives them an edge over others. But this in turn faces challenges of safety and security of the data. Keeping big data secure is becoming more and more challenging.
As the amount of data is growing so is the need to keep it secure. Any ignorance in this part may result in damaging the reputation of the organization and incurring a huge financial loss. It can bring down a company to its worse state.
