Data analytics encompasses both qualitative and quantitative techniques aimed at boosting productivity and fostering business growth. It involves extracting and organizing data to identify and analyze behavioral patterns, with methodologies tailored to the unique needs of organizations.
While data analytics finds extensive application in business-to-consumer (B2C) scenarios, it’s not limited to them. Global enterprises leverage data analytics to scrutinize customer behavior, streamline business processes, understand market dynamics, and draw insights from practical experiences. This data is meticulously categorized, stored, and analyzed to unveil purchasing patterns and trends.
Tekarch specializes in providing testing services tailored for the data analytics domain, particularly catering to customers in the B2C segment.
Problem Statement:
Separation of required data from junk i.e. as the data ages it becomes obsolete, and needs to be dealt by removing it. Such voluminous data to needs to be audited to ensure that the data fit for business purposes.
Selecting test data that represents the data that is used every day when the system is up. Not planning the logistics to store the huge volume of test data created to avoid problems.
Lack of understanding towards the data and the context of different data ‘states’ mapping to business flows. Lack of understand towards the business rules and the statistical correlation between different subsets of data.
Lack of BD ecosystem understanding and ability to think beyond the regular parameters of automated testing. Lack of required skill-set inevitably and to leverage Big Data technologies.
Lack of automation approach in order to create criteria and automate test data selection or creation process
Problem Statement:
It is a variety of cyber threats including Trojans, viruses, and worms which can be introduced to a system through software downloads, operating system vulnerabilities, email attachments etc.
Attacks are sent via email which may include a link that will guide the user to a dummy site designed to steal a user’s information and personal data.
It works by exploiting known SQL vulnerabilities that allow the SQL server to run malicious code to access user information.
One of the most common ways an attacker can deploy a cross-site scripting attack is by injecting malicious code into a comment or a script that could run automatically and significantly damage the website by placing the users’ information at risk.
An attacker can hijack the session by capturing the session ID, allowing them to log in as an unsuspicious user and gain access to the information on the web server.
Disrupting the service to a network, attackers send high volumes of data or traffic through the network until it becomes overloaded and stops functioning.
Following is a list of a few critical security testing techniques that must be implemented in organizations to safeguard critical data and information:
It simulates an attack from a malicious hacker, involves analysis of a system to check for potential vulnerabilities to an external hacking attempt.
It is done through automated software to scan a system to identify the weakness.
It’s hacking an organization’s software/systems with the intent to expose security flaws in the system.
It involves analysis of security risks identified in an organization, classified as high, Medium and low. This assessment recommends controls, measures to reduce the risk.
An internal inspection of applications and operating systems for security flaws. Audit can also be done by inspection of code.
