Hadoop - Security
A company wants to audit all access to sensitive files in Hadoop. Which combination of features should they use?
AIncrease replication factor to 5
BEnable Hadoop audit logging and use Ranger or Sentry for fine-grained access control
CUse only Kerberos without logging
DDisable security and rely on manual file checks
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Identify tools for auditing and access control

    Hadoop audit logging tracks access events; Ranger or Sentry provide detailed permission management.
  2. Step 2: Exclude ineffective or unrelated options

    Disabling security, using only Kerberos without logs, or changing replication do not provide auditing.
  3. Final Answer:

    Enable Hadoop audit logging and use Ranger or Sentry for fine-grained access control -> Option B
  4. Quick Check:

    Audit + fine-grained control = Effective monitoring [OK]
Quick Trick: Audit logs plus access control tools track sensitive data use [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Ignoring audit logging importance
  • Relying only on authentication without logs
  • Confusing replication with security auditing
