Gmail has become a huge platform with almost 1.2 billion monthly users and holds a 20% share of the global email market. However, Gmail is not really secure as they require personal information such as name, interests, who is one talking to, and many more things. Hence, for trusting Gmail, several tips should be implemented for ensuring maximum security. • Big Data plays a big role in cybersecurity and malware protection. Machine Learning tools are capable of understanding newest thus it is advisable to invest in email specific antivirus software. • Enabling two-step verification, again made reliable by the Big Data. Along with this is the easy-to-use update which adds to the security. • Upgrading the browser whenever possible reduces changes of cybercrimes. • Using a sophisticated password.

A large number of tables with thousands of rows and columns. Data keeps flowing in from multiple live sources and is rapidly changing . This is what characterizes Big Data. Datasets are becoming vast and hence more complex for analysis. Without the correct tools,it would be difficult to use this data to draw insights. In this regard,three trends have come to the forefront- IoT,querying techniques and cloud computing.The advent of IoT has digitised everything. There are sensors and wires that chanel data which is then manipulated and analyzed to get results.Querying data i.e. extracting information from data is the first step before analysis and Cloud has come to play a major role in data storage. The three trends connected have paved a path for growth in technology.

It’s really fascinating to see how we are generating an incredible amount of data every minute. Plenty of blogs and articles have been written stating that the better utilization of this data may result in more profit generation for the organization. So here are some tips to begin with the path of better utilization.

Currently what most of the organizations see is they are Creating data, and they want to generate some additional revenue from it, but they miss how to link these two aspects. 

To begin with, they must consider to use the Big Data Engines like Hadoop, Google Bigdata, Horton Works, MongoDB or anything similar. They help to find the patterns and correlations between different types of data.

Next is Data Warehousing. Data warehousing is not just maintaining a database. It has many advantages over the traditional databases. 

And another important step is Data Visualization. From the above two steps we have the data properly managed and organized. In this step we visualize the data in a productive manner.

For any organization, it is necessary to keep a track of the data created, data pulled, the source from where it is pulled, the format of the data they have been using till now, who can access this data and many more. There are many strategies for managing the data but there’s nothing as a perfect strategy. It varies from organization to organization and types of data. Another important factor is size of organization and its budget. The following are the three factors that can help in managing the data in a better way i.e. as per the GDPR rules.

1. Centralization of data

2. Automating data management 

3. Measuring Success.

After Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, the next most emerging field in todays world is the field of Data Science. It is said to be the cousins of AI and ML and mainly deals with data. It intakes data, uses processes, algorithms and scientific methods to extract knowledge and valuable data from large data sets. This field is need of each and every type of organization. Whether it be business or an IT firm, every organization needs data for improvement. Thus, outcomes from the processing of data are further used for decision making and for improving current functioning.

People often gets confused between Data Science, Data Analytics and Big Data. The key difference between them is that Data Analytics and Big Data are components of Data Science. Data Science extract values from the output of Data Analytics and Big Data to solve problems.
The goal of Data Science is to extract business-focused insights from business. This could help organizations in many ways.

According to authors, the implication of big data is the quantity is paramount, the returns generated do not match the quantity of data generated. Experts point out, it is not per se the data that should be big, but the primary factor that counts is the diversity of data, the amount of richness they provide and the focus on accelerating human understanding of data , which has the potential to create output subject to increasing returns. More data retards innovation, the speed of experimentation and iteration. However IT teams helps in bringing order to chaos, in data and analytics, by managing data infrastructure, such as data warehouses and production processes . Data scientists, who’re occupying the space between IT and business consumers , have made enormous strides in getting grip on their data, analyzing and acting on it, thereby avoiding imbalance.

Though there has been a lot of excitement around Big Data and the potential it holds for making businesses efficient, the significant risks surrounding it in the longer run shouldn’t be overlooked. Some of the most critical issues relating to Big Data are determining what kind of information can be shared and with whom, verifying transmission of cyber information without the threat of leakage and accurately analyzing the available data through the right algorithms and models. The two serious limitations to analysis of huge data sets are overestimation of the predictive capabilities of analytics and misrepresentation and manipulation of data to produce favorable results. Over-dependence on data as a base for decision making can be a risky proposition, especially for consumer-driven business and research organisations.

Today, "big data" is associated closely with profit maximization techniques (such as recommendation lists on e-commerce sites and targeted ads), high-profile data leaks and privacy issues. However, not all data are bad. Here are the positive side of Data Science:  LOGISTICS: e.g.: Airlines Schedule Flights predict delays based on precise weather forecasts, and other market and political happenings. HEALTHCARE : Big data power the idea of self-learning healthcare programs, which will be able to interpret the data of individual patients: not only their gender, age, weight, and medical history, but also their lifestyle, habits, preferences and give the personalized recommendation about adjustments that would be the most beneficial.  FACE RECOGNITION: Long time ago, it was tough to even think about it, but nowadays, Many tools are there which capture details of the current face and match it with millions of faces in about no time.  Self- Drive Cars : It has made life much easier. Either you are driving or you are on a walk, you don't have to worry at even new places. Many taxi companies are dependent on this and even self-driving cars are also there which is dependent.
