EFFECT OF BIG DATA CHARACTERISTICS ON SECURITY- LEVERAGING EXISTING SECURITY MECHANISMS FOR PROTECTION

Big Data is the surge of data which was caused by growing technology and the increase in online computing. Several characteristics that define Big Data are Volume, Velocity and Variety. The inherent nature of these characteristics will certainly introduce several vulnerabilities and threats for the entire data. These security concerns in Big Data must be addressed. The traditional systems security concerns were addressed by several strong security mechanisms. All these mechanisms are proved to be efficient and well functioning. In this paper, we discuss about the security issues that arise due to Big Data characteristics like Volume and Variety. Further, we focus on leveraging existing security mechanisms to overcome the effects of Big Data characteristics
