Big data has great commercial importance to major businesses, but security and privacy challenges are also daunting this storage, processing, and communication. Big data encapsulate organizations' most important and sensitive data with multi-level complex implementation. The challenge for any organization is securing access to the data while allowing end user to extract valuable insights. Unregulated access privileges to the big data leads to loss or theft of valuable and sensitive. Privilege escalation leads to insider threats. Also, the computing architecture of big data is not focusing on session recording; therefore, it is becoming a challenge to identify potential security issues and to take remedial and mitigation mechanisms. Therefore, various big data security issues and their defense mechanisms are discussed in this chapter.

The advent of online social networks (OSN) has transformed a common passive reader into a content contributor. It has allowed users to share information and exchange opinions, and also express themselves in online virtual communities to interact with other users of similar interests. However, OSN have turned the social sphere of users into the commercial sphere. This should create a privacy and security issue for OSN users. OSN service providers collect the private and sensitive data of their customers that can be misused by data collectors, third parties, or by unauthorized users. In this paper, common security and privacy issues are explained along with recommendations to OSN users to protect themselves from these issues whenever they use social media.

Big Data has become more popular, as it can provide on-demand, reliable and flexible services to users such as storage and its processing. The data security has become a major issue in the Big data. The open source HDFS software is used to store huge amount of data with high throughput and fault tolerance and Map Reduce is used for its computations and processing. However, it is a significant target in the Hadoop system, security model was not designed and became the major drawback of Hadoop software. In terms of storage, meta data security, sensitive data  and also the data security will be an serious issue in HDFS. With the importance of Hadoop in today's enterprises, there is also an increasing trend in providing a high security features in enterprises. Over recent years, only some level of security in Hadoop such as Kerberos and Transparent Data Encryption(TDE),Encryption techniques, hash techniques are shown for Hadoop. This paper, shows the efforts that are made to present Hadoop Authorization security issues using Apache Sentry in HDFS.

Cloud computing is attaining a pace for resolving complex computing problems. It is basically an abstracted layer of technology which has three service models: Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), (Software as a Service) SaaS and (Platform as a Service) PaaS, which provide infrastructure, software and a platform to end-user. On the contrary, there are lots of issues which include energy efficiency, cloud integrity, data recovery, backup, etc. Security and privacy issues like data confidentiality and integrity are the most critical ones. This paper highlights the security issues related to data stored and data access from back end (service provider). It collates each and every application related to cloud and available techniques to resolve some issues. Very less research work has been done on applications and security issues of cloud computing together. This article is an analysis of cloud computing applications and security issues as it is used to a great extent. In future this paper will help research community to grab information regarding applications and techniques to resolve the issues related to Cloud computing.

The novel advances in the field of Information Technology presented the people pleasure, luxuries and ease. One of the latest expansions in the Information Technology (IT) industry is Cloud Computing, a technology that uses the internet for storage and access of data. It is also known as on-demand computing. The end user can access personal data and applications anywhere any time with a device having internet. Cloud Computing has gained an enormous attention but it results in the issues of data security and privacy as the data is scattered on different machines in different places across the globe which is a serious threat to the technology. It has many advantages like flexibility, efficiency and scalability but many of the companies are hesitant to invest in it due to privacy concerns. In this chapter, the objective is to review the privacy and security issues in cloud storage of Big Data and to enhance the security in cloud environment so that end users can enjoy a trustworthy and reliable data storage and access.

Big Data is a very huge volume of data which is beyond the storage capacity and processing capability of traditional system. The volume of data is increasing at exponential rate. Therefore, there is the need of such mechanism to store and process such high volume of data. The impressiveness of the Big data lies with its major applicability to almost all industries. Therefore, it represents both, the tremendous opportunities and complex challenges. Such omnipotent eminence leads to the privacy and security related challenges to the big data. Nowadays, security of big data is mainly focused by every organization because it contains a lot of sensitive data and useful information for taking decisions. The hostile nature of digital data itself has certain inherited security challenges. The aim of Big data security is to identify security issues and to find the better solution for handling security challenges. The observation and analysis of different security mechanism related to the issues of big data and their solutions are focused in this chapter.

Organizations now have knowledge of big data significance, but new challenges stand up with new inventions. These challenges are not only limited to the three Vs of big data, but also to privacy and security. Attacks on big data system ranges from DDoS to information theft, ransomware to end user level security. So implementing security to big data system is a multiple phase-based ongoing process in which security is imposed from perimeter level to distributed file system security, cloud security to data security, storage to data mining security, and so on. In this chapter, the authors have identified some key vulnerable point related to big data and also proposed a security model.

Cloud computing is a new and promising technology that is transforming the paradigm of traditional Internet computing and probably the whole IT industry. Cloud computing is predicted to expand in the mobile environment leveraging on the rapid advances in wireless access technologies. These mobile applications are built around mobile cloud computing techniques and models. In the Mobile Cloud environment, users can remotely store their data as well as enjoy high quality on-demand cloud applications without the limitations of having to purchase and maintain their own local hardware and software. However, data security is still a major concern and is the main obstacle preventing cloud computing from being more widely adopted. This concern originates from the fact that sensitive data stored in the public clouds is managed by commercial service providers who might not be totally trustworthy. As such, there are several security and privacy issues that need to be addressed. This chapter gives an overview on the cloud computing concept followed by a description on mobile cloud computing and the different security issues pertinent to the mobile cloud computing environment.


Big data is gaining the popularity among the data scientist and the people from the Biology related disciplines. Big Data is very huge in volume and comes very fast from various sources. Millions of tweets or posts are generated per second on social networking sites. Big data has many issues of i.e. nature, storing, management, and processing, privacy and security in disclosing of attributes of the sensitive data in data of healthcare etc. For maintaining the privacy there are k-anonymity, psensitive k-anonymity, l-diversity, t-closeness, and k-concealment ways. In this paper an anonymity algorithm is proposed which will be used to enhance the security and privacy preserving of sensitive attributes of big data.
