Cold Water at Prism Gate: Where Big Data and Information Security Go?

The concept of big data has gradually become a trend in many IT fields in recent years. It seems that as long as big data is on the edge, no matter what the area, so many can be said to be trendy. However, when we are still addicted to the big data honeymoon When, Snowden burst out of the "Prism" gave us poured a solid cold water, and information security vulnerabilities also will be more and more burst more. The original big data and information security can be in close cooperation, but now also encountered a freezing point. How to make big data and information reconciled and again hand in hand, the following is a personal view of data security experts Shan Li An.

How much convenience can Big Data bring to information security?

As the hottest concept nowadays, big data has a direct relationship with the cloud application. But also because the bedding cloud technology to create a foundation for later development, so in the later development, the development of large data simply by leaps and bounds.

From the perspective of application of information security, the main function of big data is to manage and summarize storage. Under the rapid improvement of big data, it has developed its own unique architecture, so it fundamentally directly improves network management, video surveillance storage, and system technologies. And this provides a very wide range of storage requirements for some of the larger video surveillance or access control information, and even the safe city. Especially in the current high demand for high-definition, as well as the more efficient processing requirements , no doubt for our information processing foundation provides a very substantial premise.

Thus, in such circumstances, the big data to the needs of information security protection also self-evident. And this has a strong demand for storage capacity compatibility, but also the future development of security or lack of important applications.

Prism door incident makes the original beautiful relationship suffered a mutation

However, just as we all welcome the big data to provide more storage for our storage. Snowden's pot of cold water will throw us some loss.

Although in the current incident each other's background factors provide a very large convenience factor for the theft of such information. However, as we share information more and more frequently today. Especially when security applications are also beginning to introduce more of this shared storage means that some of our life details or important security information and data will face greater potential for theft. Today is the U.S. government that stole our data. So tomorrow there will be no more voyages to higher-end hackers. All this is a fact that we can not control. And the end result of all this will be our further concern about the safety of information storage.

For the construction of information and data security system, improving can be said that we are building the core idea. And that means more details and even privacy about more of our lives. Of course, in the face of today's increasingly complex security challenges, we are not overly averse to similar security measures. However, it is absolutely an out-and-out conflict that today's security information needs to face some unforeseen security challenges. Especially for big data, integration and analysis is its biggest feature, but in the face of such high-value security information has to face more security threats, it is indeed an embarrassing situation.

Big Data Applications How do we position it?

In fact, for these comprehensive applications, including cloud technology, we must take a more cautious approach in the process of pioneering. Especially for the field of security, its information security should show more attention. This new application of current information technology often brings us mainstream enjoyment as well as a lot of negative risks, so we should perfect our application with more caution and stability application. Otherwise, it is easy to place yourself in a beautiful trap.

As to the fundamental question of where to start from safety, we must find out the most fundamental and direct protection law. This method must be the best protection for all this source data. Since ancient times, encryption is the best choice for data source protection. Encryption With the development of information technology, many different forms have also been replaced. In modern times, multi-modal encryption technology is a commonly used data encryption technology for data electronicization and its diverse environment. This kind of encryption technology combines the symmetrical algorithm and the asymmetrical algorithm, lets the encryption to be able to adapt to the many kinds of data to exist the form, simultaneously may also let the user choose the encryption means and the way independently, simultaneously may say is a kind of all-round and flexible encryption technology. As a leader in the field of data security, the waterproof wall series of San-An Network is the typical representative of this technology.

We do not have a reason to refuse to accommodate big data applications. Of course, that does not mean we are blind to its hidden dangers. Only when we draw on its value can we strike a balance in some of its security needs so that we can truly touch upon the best security in our hearts. Proactive attack is undoubtedly the best means of protection, and through the protection of the data source, the use of targeted data security products or encryption software, may be able to get rid of the freezing point to achieve the effect of a new direction of safety!
