As per the literature review number of proposals is available for the above mentioned issues but there is no guarantee of data privacy and security, therefore, still lot of scope is there for optimal or sub-optimal solutions. Motive of this study is to investigate the different challenges of big data for privacy and security through Indian prospective. We have collected the existing solutions for data privacy and security, and performed a comprehensive review by including their pros and cons. Impact areas of different cyber attacks have been investigated and covered in details. This study is not only preventing the data from fraud but also interested in knowing the culprit behind this fraud/attack.
