4 Brilliant Ways to Use Big Data to Boost Gmail Security


These days, Google has taking privacy into a more and more serious matter. However, for Gmail, as one of Google’s features, is still far from the most secure of email servers on the market. But, as a Gmail user itself, reading this article made me relieve. Why is that? Because this article portrays how big data as a rapidly growing technology can help to boost Gmail security in 4 clever ways.
The first way is talking about how big data has achieved impressive advances in cybersecurity and malware protection. It means that we can try to invest in email-specific antivirus software that contains big data tools. This software will be very useful because big data and machine learning tools are able to understand and identify the newest threats then use its recent algorithms to combat it.
Second way is big data will make two-step verification more trusted and reliable. Based on Google’s own internal data, it has been stated that this is the best way to protect the data of consumers.
Third way is by upgrading your browser when you have the chance because the active browser has a greater chance for a security breach. So, anytime your browser sends a notification, it’s better to make it a priority to upgrade.
The last way to boost your Gmail security is to make a really sophisticated and unique password. A great password is a combination of numbers, characters, and letters that you easily remember but hardly guess by everyone else.
In conclusion, the presence of big data and machine learning as a predictive analytics technology have encouraged internet security better.

Globally, more and more evidence of climate change is prompting governments and scientists to take action to protect people and property from its effects. But to take effective measures, they need to know more about the weather-from everything that will happen tomorrow to what will happen next year. According to the professor of economics and finance , Alan Anderson, PhD , “Example of an application of big data to weather forecasting is IBM’s Deep Thunder.
