DUBLIN, June 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Securing the Virtual World" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
This study analyzes the various security and privacy threats that exist in the metaverse today and potential countermeasures that enterprises could consider to thwart these threats.
Virtual worlds or metaverses will gather different types of user data, including personal information (age, gender, name), user behavior (choices/habits), and metadata from personal communication. Engaging in a virtual environment might expose users to continuous monitoring from commercial providers, as well as hacking from bad actors.
Furthermore, virtual worlds could potentially create an environment of digital abuse, e.g., hate speech, disinformation, violence against women and people of color, or bullying. Providers must implement a strong security framework that encompasses a combination of technical and regulatory solutions to maximize the benefits of metaverse usage while overcoming privacy risks.
