Data Risks in Big Data for Analytics

Organizations leverage big data and data lakes for analytics while managing vast amounts of information. However, they must adopt a data-centric security strategy to protect sensitive data effectively. Moreover, employing advanced encryption techniques enhances the overall security of sensitive information throughout its lifecycle.

Big Data Security Tools as Reality Check by Defendeer

Reality Check by Defendeer

The Reality Check, titled “Risks in Big Data” uses a data-centric security platform (DCAP). This platform provides companies with comprehensive control over their data streams. Consequently, it enhances data protection in applications effectively.

The use of big data and data lakes poses significant risks to sensitive information. For instance, data breaches and compliance violations can occur due to poor governance. Additionally, inadequate anonymization may lead to re-identification of individuals. Moreover, insider threats and data quality issues further compromise privacy. Consequently, insecure storage solutions can attract cyberattacks, highlighting the need for robust governance and regular audits.

Flexible Installation Options for the Reality Check

  • Defendeer provides two installation choices for the reality check, either locally within the company infrastructure or in the cloud.
  • First, a workshop outlines the scope, expectations, and process for discovering sensitive data.
  • Then, upon completion, a detailed report is provided. With these insights, organizations can assess risks.
  • Additionally, they may implement a Data Centric Security platform for automated governance.

Your Reality Check Benefits

Experience comprehensive data mapping, as it enables you to gain a deeper understanding of your sensitive data across data lakes, big data, and data warehouses.

Understand real-time risk assessment, which allows you to identify potential vulnerabilities and, consequently, mitigate risks before they escalate into significant threats.

Get to know proactive monitoring, which continuously tracks data flows and, therefore, ensures the highest level of security for your sensitive data in large data environments.

Simplify compliance with regulations, thereby avoiding penalties while maintaining your data management practices for both data in motion and data at rest.

Implement fine-grained access control and, in addition, monitor data access activity while swiftly applying data de-identification measures to enhance security.

Data Encryption at Rest enhance data security. Therefore, they protect sensitive information, reduce the risk of breaches, and ensure compliance with industry regulations effectively.
