Big Data Privacy Context: Literature Effects On Secure Informational Assets
This article's objective is the identification of research opportunities in
the current big data privacy domain, evaluating literature effects on secure
informational assets. Until now, no study has analyzed such relation. Its
results can foster science, technologies and businesses. To achieve these
objectives, a big data privacy Systematic Literature Review (SLR) is performed
on the main scientific peer reviewed journals in Scopus database. Bibliometrics
and text mining analysis complement the SLR. This study provides support to big
data privacy researchers on: most and least researched themes, research
novelty, most cited works and authors, themes evolution through time and many
others. In addition, TOPSIS and VIKOR ranks were developed to evaluate
literature effects versus informational assets indicators. Secure Internet
Servers (SIS) was chosen as decision criteria. Results show that big data
privacy literature is strongly focused on computational aspects. However,
individuals, societies, organizations and governments face a technological
change that has just started to be investigated, with growing concerns on law
and regulation aspects. TOPSIS and VIKOR Ranks differed in several positions
and the only consistent country between literature and SIS adoption is the
United States. Countries in the lowest ranking positions represent future
research opportunities.Comment: 21 pages, 9 figure
Protection of big data privacy
In recent years, big data have become a hot research topic. The increasing amount of big data also increases the chance of breaching the privacy of individuals. Since big data require high computational power and large storage, distributed systems are used. As multiple parties are involved in these systems, the risk of privacy violation is increased. There have been a number of privacy-preserving mechanisms developed for privacy protection at different stages (e.g., data generation, data storage, and data processing) of a big data life cycle. The goal of this paper is to provide a comprehensive overview of the privacy preservation mechanisms in big data and present the challenges for existing mechanisms. In particular, in this paper, we illustrate the infrastructure of big data and the state-of-the-art privacy-preserving mechanisms in each stage of the big data life cycle. Furthermore, we discuss the challenges and future research directions related to privacy preservation in big data
Revealing the Landscape of Privacy-Enhancing Technologies in the Context of Data Markets for the IoT: A Systematic Literature Review
IoT data markets in public and private institutions have become increasingly
relevant in recent years because of their potential to improve data
availability and unlock new business models. However, exchanging data in
markets bears considerable challenges related to disclosing sensitive
information. Despite considerable research focused on different aspects of
privacy-enhancing data markets for the IoT, none of the solutions proposed so
far seems to find a practical adoption. Thus, this study aims to organize the
state-of-the-art solutions, analyze and scope the technologies that have been
suggested in this context, and structure the remaining challenges to determine
areas where future research is required. To accomplish this goal, we conducted
a systematic literature review on privacy enhancement in data markets for the
IoT, covering 50 publications dated up to July 2020, and provided updates with
24 publications dated up to May 2022. Our results indicate that most research
in this area has emerged only recently, and no IoT data market architecture has
established itself as canonical. Existing solutions frequently lack the
required combination of anonymization and secure computation technologies.
Furthermore, there is no consensus on the appropriate use of blockchain
technology for IoT data markets and a low degree of leveraging existing
libraries or reusing generic data market architectures. We also identified
significant challenges remaining, such as the copy problem and the recursive
enforcement problem that-while solutions have been suggested to some extent-are
often not sufficiently addressed in proposed designs. We conclude that
privacy-enhancing technologies need further improvements to positively impact
data markets so that, ultimately, the value of data is preserved through data
scarcity and users' privacy and businesses-critical information are protected.Comment: 49 pages, 17 figures, 11 table
