Abstract

In the  present era, the use of the Internet has extended abruptly. With this abrupt increase, massive data is being created, resulting in big data. Big data means more diverse, more impetus, and more complex data streams. Data is being produced in abundance in exabytes and zettabytes by electronic devices, power grids, and modern software. This big data brings different challenges such as incompleteness, inconsistency, heterogeneity, and security with itself. The presented paper targets the security challenge as it is a very significant feature overseen by various data analysts; thus, data must be secured from dwindling in the wrong hands. This paper discusses the approaches and mechanisms mainly based on anonymization, access control, and encryption.
