Information security challenges in big data: critical reviewing study
Big data has revolutionized knowledge production as it represents a very large amount of data that exceeds the ability of traditional computing devices to process it. Indeed, the past few decades have witnessed the emergence of new methods of producing, storing and analyzing data to process their huge amount, culminating in the emergence of the field of data science, which combines computational, algorithmic, statistical and mathematical techniques to extrapolate knowledge from big data [1]. The open data movement has also encouraged the sharing of heterogeneous search data and linking it across large digital infrastructures. The paper aimed at shedding light on the challenges facing big data, especially the information security challenge, to try to identify the challenges and solutions that contribute to reducing challenges.
In fact, the lack of independent and detailed studies of these challenges that focus on practical solutions was the motive for conducting this paper. It aims at identifying and collecting the intellectual production, specifying the deficiencies, and looking out for future studies issues bearing in mind the importance of information security and its impact on the continuity and development of technology and facilitating the preservation, sharing and extraction of knowledge.
In this paper, the critical literary methodology was followed to specify the achieved studies and literature in the same issue and thus generalize the benefits and find solutions. Were analyzed to achieve the goal of identifying the challenges facing big data.
One of the most prominent findings of the paper after reviewing the literature and studies shows that the most prominent challenge of big data is the challenge of information security, especially personal data. A number of studies have suggested heading to encryption as one of the solutions and the principle of defining the purpose, restricting use, multi-layer security, and applying Block chain technology.
This goes hand in hand with the aim of the paper to define the challenges of information security in big data, thus contributing to finding appropriate solutions by programmers and specialists, and taking advantage of the characteristics and advantages of big data in saving intellectual production and making it accessible.

Education level, infrastructure facilities, and the working environment affect the performance of primary school teachers in South Barito Regency
The role of individual performance is needed to advance the quality of education. Without a good performance, the goal will be very far achieved like a fire away from the roast. So the individual performance of teachers is very necessary in the world of education. Teachers are the backbone of educational activities, especially those related to teaching and learning activities. Without the role of the teacher, the teaching and learning process will be disrupted or even fail. Therefore, in education management, the role of teachers in efforts to succeed in education is always improved, teacher performance or work performance must always be improved considering the challenges of the world of education to produce quality human resources that are able to compete in the global era. Performance or work performance can be interpreted as the achievement of work results in accordance with the rules and standards that apply to each organization, in this case the school. This study concludes that the level of education, facilities and infrastructure and the work environment greatly influences the performance of teachers in elementary schools, especially in South Barito Regency.

Information security in cloud computing reality and expectations
The world is no longer what it was after the great development in technology in general and the Internet in particular. This development contributed to the diversity of information sources and the variation in its consciousness and flow in huge quantities. Cloud computing brought about a qualitative shift in technical thought as it helped to bridge the distance and brought time closer. Cloud computing became an essential engine for the economies of countries as it played a ley role in decision-making and formed the basis of knowledge, while recognizing and rejecting borders. Language barriers, and I do not exaggerate when I say fairly that it is a living organism that grows, develops and expands. But on the other hand, they face security challenges that concern its users.
The paper aimed to study the security challenges in cloud computing such that intellectual production is limited to the knowledge of the researcher from 2010 to 2020. A total of 11 studies were analyzed using the descriptive survey method, and then the shortcomings were identified for finding effective solutions, hoping to enrich scientific research, which suffers from shortcomings in this aspect in light of the recent era of cloud computing.
It is worth mentioning that the majority of the findings of the studies referred to the security challenge as a dilemma suffered by users of cloud computing. These studies also proposed solutions through which it is possible to overcome this problem. Some studies suggested practical scientific suggestions and recommended the use of logarithms to provide protection. Some have also suggested multiple steps for computing such as three stages of encryption to ensure that cloud computing is not broken into and that access to private information remains confidential.
This paper found that the biggest challenge facing cloud computing is information security and that a combination of multiple steps of entry and encryptions and the use of algorithms is an important solution to resolving security challenges.
