Introduction
The term big data corresponds to the vast amount of data and information present within
a system, which can be utilized for different purposes. The stored data can be analyzed
computationally to reveal the different patterns and trends associated with the human behaviors.
Big data deals with voluminous amounts data both structured and unstructured that different
organizations can use for business purposes (Wu et al., 2014). A wide range of audience can
access this data and therefore, different security and privacy issues remain associated with the
storage of massive amount of digital information. Therefore, different security measures are
needed to be ensured in order maintain the privacy and the integrity of the data. Enisa is facing a
similar big data threat and this report discusses the different threats. The report elaborates the top
threats associated with the organization and the key threat agent (Inukollu, Arsi & Ravuri, 2014).
The report further discusses the steps that could be taken to minimize the impact of the threats on
the system.
