Cloud Security Alliance: 10 Ways To Achieve Access Control For Big Data
A look at granular access control of the big data security and privacy.
The Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) Big Data Working Group recently released a new handbook: The Big Data Security and Privacy Handbook: 100 Best Practices in Big Data Security and Privacy. The handbook includes 10 categories of consideration for the biggest challenges in big data security, including:
Secure Computations in Distributed Programming Frameworks
Security Best Practices for Non-Relational Data Stores
Secure Data Storage and Transaction Logs
Endpoint Input Validation / Filtering
Real-Time Security / Compliance Monitoring
Scalable and Composable Privacy-Preserving Analytics
Cryptographic Technologies for Big Data
Granular Access Control
Granular Audits
Data Provenance
Number 9 in the list--Granular Access Control—is described by CSA as “a tool that can be used to reduce data restriction without violating policies.”
Here's a closer look at this category, where the 10 best practices can also be applied to any system holding critical or otherwise sensitive data.
