Currently, various data security tools are used in Big Data database systems. The basic principle is the parallel use of several types of IT security and compliance with specific procedures for analyzing and securing systems against potential materialization of operational risks, including technical risks associated with used computer hardware and specific database technologies and personnel risks associated with employees who support these systems.
The key issue is also whether built database systems are directly connected to the Internet online or are not permanently connected to the Internet and certain data from the Internet are added from time to time to Big Data databases after their analysis by anti-virus software, detecting malware worms, such as keyloggers and other malicious software created by cybercriminals and used to steal information from database systems of data warehouses and Big Data.
In a situation when Big Data database systems or other systems where important information is collected are connected to the Internet online, then the information sent should be encrypted, and system gateways connecting the Big Data database with the Internet should be equipped with a good firewall and other filtering security incoming information. If the employees operating the Big Data database system use certain e-mailboxes, they should be only company mailboxes and verified from the security side of data transfer on the Internet. The company should have strict security procedures for using e-mail boxes, because in recent years via e-mails cybercriminals have sent ransomware programs hidden in e-mail attachments, used to encrypt hard disks used in company and server databases.
Do you agree with me on the above matter?
In the context of the above issues, I am asking you the following question:
How should Big Data database systems be protected against the activities of cybercriminals? What types of programs and systems for securing Big Data databases against cybercrime are currently used? What other types of security instruments for Big Data database systems are currently used?
Please reply
I invite you to the discussion
Thank you very much

How should Big Data database systems be protected against the activities of cybercriminals?
Possible ways include:
Very important topic because It is coincides with the digital transformation in most of businesses
How should Big Data database systems be protected against the activities of cybercriminals?
Possible ways include:
Have a trust firewall system, login system, encryption and securyty group
the possible way is to procet the big data database to ensure to network layer security and have a firewall system
I completely agree to the suggestions given by Han Ping Fung above. I would like to add to it. The database administrators may also follow the Data security standards laid out by OWASP for developers. Many a times, it is seen that while performing Incident Forensics after the Data Breach, the UI application turns out to be Vulnerable through which Criminals perform SQLi or other Script injections and get access to the Database. Securing the database itself would not protect you from these UI attacks. Criminals override the User Access Privileges by manipulating the Application Interfacing source code. If the Developer follows the guidelines laid out by OWASP, FIRST and other organizations designing the Compliance standards; this minimizes the Vulnerability risk and impact of transforming it into an Exploit. We could definitely minimize the Bugs right at the Development stage.
Dear Friends and Colleagues of RG,
What are the current safeguards for Big Data database systems against attacks by cybercriminals?
Are the costs of securing Big Data database systems against attacks by cybercriminals currently one of the most important categories of expenses related to maintaining the security of these systems?
How does the issue of data security in Big Data database systems change when comparing Big Data systems connected to the Internet and deliberately not directly connected to the Internet?
