Abstract :

 Amount of data we generate every day and the data collected in everything we do is pretty big. This is what we call “Big Data” and it is helping businesses and every industry to become more efficient and productive. Data in healthcare is growing day by day. Healthcare consists of large amount of unstructured data– like insurance details, electronic health record, sensor data etc. The main challenge in healthcare systems is how to find, collect, analyse and manage information to make people‘s lives healthier. The Surgeons would not like to stay in village to fulfil their livelihood requirements so this big data can help the doctors in the village area to refer into multiple records and to give the best treatment to patient. Big data repositories could be an attractive target to malicious insiders and outsiders, so major issue of big data is privacy and security. This paper discuss about the problems of big data and analyzing the solutions to use it efficiently. It also discuss about various security threats and provide solutions to enhance the security.
