A Novel Framework for Big Data Security Infrastructure Components

Abstract

Big data encompasses enormous data and management of huge data collected from various sources like online social media contents, log files, sensor records, surveys and online transactions. It is essential to provide new security models, concerns and efficient security designs and approaches for confronting security and privacy aspects of the same. This paper intends to provide initial analysis of the security challenges in Big Data. The paper introduces the basic concepts of Big Data and its enormous growth rate in terms of pita and zettabytes. A model framework for Big Data Infrastructure Security Components Framework (BDAF) is proposed that includes components like Security Life Cycle, Fine-grained data-centric access control policies, the Dynamic Infrastructure Trust Bootstrap Protocol (DITBP). The framework allows deploying trusted remote virtualised data processing environment and federated access control and identity management.
