CIOs Should Push Big Data Projects but Prioritize Privacy

 In its recent report on big data and privacy, the White House again pushed for a Consumer Privacy Bill of Rights that could adversely affect some big data initiatives. Experts say CIOs should continue to push their organizations to leverage big data analytics, but they must also make consumer privacy a priority.

"I think, at the end of the day, this is going to become one of the biggest sources of competitive advantage that an enterprise can have. Those enterprises that really have, as a core competency, the ability to gather data, analyze it and act on it are going to have a major advantage.
