Navigating the Metaverse: Forecasting Cybercrime in the New Age of Virtual Reality
Abstract
The rise of the metaverse—a virtual world where individuals can interact with each other and digital objects in a fully immersive environment—has led to new challenges in the world of cybersecurity. As more individuals and businesses move towards this new frontier, the potential for cybercrime is also increasing. In this chapter, the authors explore the diverse types of cybercrime that may emerge from virtual theft and fraud to privacy violations and hacking. They also discuss the unique challenges faced by law enforcement and security professionals in detecting and preventing these crimes in a fully virtual environment. To aid in forecasting these crimes, the authors examine current trends and technological developments that may impact the future of the metaverse, including the growth of decentralized technologies, the increasing prevalence of artificial intelligence, and the potential for quantum computing. By understanding the potential risks and challenges of the metaverse, we can better prepare ourselves for a future where virtual and physical crime intersect.
