From YouTube: C* Summit 2013: Lock it Up — Securing Sensitive Data

Description

Speaker: Sam Heywood, Sr. Director of Products at Gazzang

As adoption of NoSQL solutions like Apache Cassandra grows, so too does the likelihood that organizations will use it to capture and analyze sensitive data. Enterprises that don't take every precaution to protect this data leave themselves exposed to risk of a data breach, and depending on the regulatory nature of the data, fines for noncompliance. This session will discuss how transparent data encryption and advanced key management protect data at-rest and in-flight, so regardless of where the data resides — either on premises or in the cloud -- it remains garbled and unreadable to all people, processes and applications that don't require immediate access. The session will also cover DevOps automation tools that ensure rapid distributed deployment of big data security across thousands of nodes.
