Metaverse is the most futuristic iteration of the internet – a virtual world built on augmented reality/virtual reality to create shared 3D spaces. The possibilities in the virtual world are richer than ever, but it comes with consumer skepticism and security concerns.
As explained by Darren Shaw, chief technology officer at NortonLifeLock in wired, in a best-case scenario, the main drawback is the democratization of access to education and experiences. In the dark, it exacerbates inequality, fragments reality, and undermines shared experiences. As the metaverse usher in a new era of technology, SXSW Tech Track sponsor Norton stands as a digital ally for consumers, bringing the positive side of digital life at every turn.
Cyber security, like physical security, will be increasingly important in the metaverse, as consumers continue to work, play, and buy and sell goods and services across all platforms. Norton will fight the darkness of cyber threats and innovate to keep the digital life on the bright side.
