S04EP08 | Teaser | Securing You in the Metaverse

As organisations and users increasingly move into the metaverse, AI-powered threats are evolving faster than traditional defences.
 The primary challenge for today’s security teams is that conventional detection and manual response are too slow for the millisecond-scale attacks of immersive environments.

Their work on DAI-TIRS addresses this problem by integrating anomaly detection, adversarial AI defence, dynamic honeypots, and predictive threat modelling into a unified system for metaverse.
