Privacy and Security Issues in Big Data

Abstract

Big data analytics has found a recent application in the process of aiding care deliveries and exploration of various diseases. Although the healthcare industry has still not been able to grasp the proper working benefit from the use of big data analytics in their working process, with the recent rise in the academic study of big data analytics, there has been proper implementation of the process to help the healthcare industry. It has still been found that the adoption rate of the big data analytics in the healthcare industry is low. Big data analytics provide tools for the management, collection and analysis of the data by current healthcare systems. This paper consists of the mapping of the benefits driven by the big data analytics process in the healthcare industry. The inclusion of major strategies, which can be adopted by the healthcare industry for the implementation of proper big data technologies, has been included. This paper also discusses the potential application of big data analytics in healthcare industry.
