Security Issues and Challenges in Big Data Analytics in Distributed Environment

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Scalable Computing and Communications ((SCC))

Abstract

Data with high volume, variety, velocity, variability and veracity termed as Big Data. Big data is usually processed in distributed environment with a number of connected machines supporting applications typically termed as Big Data Analytics. However, the amount of sensitive data typically processed in typical Big Data Analytics has made Big Data Analytics applications an eye catch to anomalous users. Processing big volume of data in distributed environment also makes it an attractive prey. In this chapter, we try to cover the security issues related to various aspects of Big Data Analytics. We show the vulnerabilities involve in that as well as situations in which these vulnerabilities arises. We focused on the security aspects which arises in the practical environment in industries and organizations. Finally, we concluded the chapter by providing some security countermeasures. Countermeasures may vary according to the situation and type of attacks.
