Abstract :
The coming age of "big data\´\´ has been a recent focus of IT companies, governments, and even the World Economic Forum (WEF). The rapid, exponential growth of global data outpaces Moore\´s law improvements in computing and storage efficiency, creating a growing "energy wall\´\´ in coping with global data. We observe in this paper that this problem is significantly exacerbated by (needed) security mechanisms. We propose for more systematically designed energy-aware security mechanisms.
