What’s different about the Big Data context?
Ã Breaking down silos: fantastic for analytics, but leads to increased security
challenges
– Centralized data lake with multi-tenancy requires secure (and easy) authentication and fine-
grained authorization
Ã Data democratization and the Data Scientist role (often a data superuser
with elevated privileges)
Ã Data is maintained over a long duration
Ã Cloud and Hybrid architectures spanning data center and (multiple) public
clouds further broaden the attack surface area and present novel
authentication and authorization challenges
Ã Along with adherence to security fundamentals and defense in-depth, a
data-centric approach to security becomes critical

Data Protection in Hadoop
must be applied at three different layers
in Apache Hadoop
Storage: encrypt data while it is at rest
Transparent Data Encryption in HDFS, Navigator Key Trustee, Navigator
Encrypt, Ranger KMS + HSM, Partner Products (HPE Voltage, Protegrity,
Dataguise)
Transmission: encrypt data as it is in motion
Wire encryption (TLS, SASL,..)
Upon Access: apply restrictions when accessed
Apache Ranger (Dynamic Column Masking + Row Filtering), Partner
Masking + Encryption
Data Protection

Encryption of Data in Hadoop
Volume
Encryption
Protects data after physical theft
or accidental loss of a disk volume.
Entire volume is encrypted: very
coarse-grained security
Does not protect against viruses or
other attacks that occur while a
system is running.
Application-
level encryption
Encryption within an application
running on top of Hadoop
Supports a higher level of
granularity and prevents "rogue
admin" access
Adds a layer of complexity to the
application architecture.
HDFS data-at-
rest encryption
Encrypts selected files and
directories stored ("at rest") in
HDFS.
Uses specially designated HDFS
directories known as "encryption
zones.”
End-to-end encryption of data
read from and written to HDFS.
HDFS does not have access to
unencrypted data or keys.

Framing the Problem…..
• Related data, different security requirements
• Authorization – who can see it
• Audit – track who read it
• Encrypt on disk – regulatory
• File-level (or blob) granularity isn’t enough
• File systems don’t understand columns

Requirements
• Readers should transparently decrypt data
• If and only if the user has access to the key
• The data must be decrypted locally
• Columns are only decrypted as necessary
• Master keys must be managed securely
• Support for Key Management Server & hardware
• Support for key rolling

Partial Solutions

Partial Solution – HDFS Encryption
• Transparent HDFS Encryption
• Encryption zones
• HDFS directory trees
• Unique master key for each zone
• Client decrypts data
• Key Management via KeyProvider API

HDFS Encryption Limitations
• Very coarse protection
• Only entire directory subtrees
• No ability to protect columns
• A lot of users need access to keys
• Moves between zones is painful
• When writing with Hive, data is moved
multiple times per a query

Hive Server 2 Limitations
• Limits access to Hive SQL
• Only user ‘hive’ has access
• Breaks Hadoop’s multi-paradigm data access
• Many customers use both Hive & Spark
• JDBC is not distributed
• New Spark to LLAP connector addresses this

Partial Solution – Separate tables
• Split private information out of tables
• Separate directories in HDFS
• HDFS and/or HS2 authorization
• Enables HDFS encryption
• Limitations
• Need to join with other tables
• Higher operational overhead

Partial Solution – Encryption UDF
• Hive has user defined functions
• aes_encrypt and aes_decrypt
• Limitations
• Key management is problematic
• Encryption is not seeded
• Size of value leaks information

Solution

Columnar Encryption
• Columnar file formats (eg. ORC)
• Write data in columns
• Column projection
• Better compression
• Encryption works really well
• Only encrypt bytes for column
• Can store multiple variants of data

ORC File Format

User Experience
• Set table properties for encryption
• orc.encrypt.pii = ”ssn,email”
• orc.encrypt.credit = “card_info”
• Define where to get the encryption keys
• Configuration defines the key provider via URI

Key Management
• Create a master key for each use case
• “pii”, “pci”, or “hipaa”
• Each column in each file uses unique local key
• Allows audit of which users read which files
• Ranger policies limit access to keys
• Who, What, When, Where

KeyProvider API
• Provides limited access to encryption keys
• Encrypts or decrypts local keys
• Users are never given master keys
• Key versions and key rolling of master keys
• Allows 3rd party plugins
• Supports Cloud, Hadoop or Ranger KMS

Encryption Data Flow

Encryption Flow
• Local key
• Random for each encrypted column in file
• Encrypted w/ master key by KMS
• Encrypted local key is stored in file metadata
• IV is generated to be unique
• Column, kind, stripe, & counter

Static Data Masking
• What happens without key access?
• Define static masks
• Nullify – all values become null
• Redact – mask values ‘Xxxxx Xxxxx!’
• Can define ranges to unmask
• SHA256 – replace with SHA256
• Custom - user defined

Data Masking
• Anonymization is hard!
• AOL search logs
• Netflix prize datasets
• NYC taxi dataset
• Always evaluate security tradeoffs
• Tokenization is a useful technique
• Assign arbitrary replacements

Key Disposal
• Often need to keep data for 90 days
• Currently the data is written twice
• With column encryption:
• Roll keys daily
• Delete master key after 90 days

ORC Encryption Design
• Write both variants of streams
• Masked unencrypted
• Unmasked encrypted
• Encrypt both data and statistics
• Maintain compatibility for old readers
• Read unencrypted variant
• Preserve ability to seek in file

ORC Write Pipeline
• Streams go through pipeline
• Run length encoding
• Compression (zlib, snappy, or lzo)
• Encryption
• Encryption is AES/CTR
• Allows seek
• No padding

Conclusions

Conclusions
• ORC column encryptions provides
• Transparent encryption
• Multi-paradigm column security
• Audit logging (via KMS logging)
• Static masking
• Supports file merging
• Different stripes with different local key

Integration with Other Tools
• Hive & Spark
• No change other than defining table properties
• Apache Hive’s LLAP
• Cache and fast processing of SQL queries
• Column encryption changes internal interfaces
• Cache both encrypted and unencrypted variants
• Ensure audit log reflects end-user and what they
accessed

Limitations
• Need encryption policy for write
• Current Atlas & Ranger tags lag data
• Auto-discovery requires pre-access
• Changes to masking policy
• Need to re-write files
• Need additional data masks
• Credit card, addresses, etc.
• Decrypted local keys could be saved
