Growing Enterprise Data Is Creating Big Cybersecurity Risk
Cyber Defense Magazine, Friday, January 17th, 2025
Buzz about big data permeated tech conversations in the mid-1990s, but people today don't talk as much about big data anymore. It's not that data isn't big. Data is bigger than ever, and it continues to grow. Estimates suggest global data creation will exceed 180 zettabytes by 2025.
It's just that data has now permeated essentially every aspect of how we live and do business. Data on factory floors, streets and highways, point-of-sale terminals and elsewhere are helping drive business transformation and growth, fuel innovation and create competitive advantage.
Wherever connected devices are present, data is at work or at the ready. It's just a fact of life.
