Why do we have privacy issues after using data masking technique on big data?
Hi,
I was just wondering why do we still having data privacy issues all over the big data even though the data has been hiding and cannot be manipulated?
Thanks!!!

Hi Eeshwar!
Thanks for reaching out.
The main reason for data privacy issues remain that sometimes the masking technique may not have worked so well and the hackers may have managed to obtain the real data. I.e. they may have managed to re-identify it. So, it's basically a matter of how good a given masking technique is, in a certain situation, and whether it has worked well in that particular case.
This can also be classified as a data protection issue.
Hope this helps.

Martin
