AR and VR Cybersecurity Challenges: Navigating New Frontiers
Truefort, Tuesday, June 6,2023
There are many unique VR cybersecurity challenges, and AR and VR are going mainstream
Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) technologies are no longer just futurist fantasies. In light of yesterday's news from Apple and Meta's continued gaming support, VR is stepping up.
Many of us in the tech space are early adoptors, and VR cybersecurity isn't something we've really had to consider so far. I've been a regular VR user since the PSVR, moving to a Quest 1 and then a Quest 2; however, as new technologies become mainstream, which they very possibly will with the release of the Apple Vision Pro (their new $3,499 AR headset), they invariably introduce a plethora of cybersecurity and privacy challenges. VR cybersecurity will be a very real issue that users, developers, and security teams will have to consider in the immediate future.
