In the age of disruption, big data is a powerful catalyst for businesses to achieve tangible growth. It helps corporations track consumer behavior, measure efficiency and forecast market trends. When leveraged correctly, the actionable insights gleaned from big data can dramatically increase a company's bottom line.

As more and more corporations are turning to data driven-solutions to drive business growth, the value of said data becomes more evident to cybercriminals. In turn, cases of data theft and exploitation have become rampant across several industries. Where there is money, there will be crime.

Data center operators such as Alibaba Cloud are adopting more sophisticated strategies to guard data from being breached.
