Why is everyone so hyped over Big Data?

Global spending on Homeland Security now stands at about $200 billion annually. But with budgets in Asia now set to increase by 30 percent in its trillion dollar plus market, where China, India, Japan and Saudi Arabia are closely followed by the South East Asia tigers, the message is clear: Asia is already almost as big a market as the United States, which accounts for one third of the world’s Homeland Security expenditure. But unlike the US, it’ll be a mistake to look at the security situation in Asia as one constant. Asia has many geostrategic regions, each with its own peculiarities, presenting challenges that are either indigenous or insurgencies that survive on cross border support.
