Abstract
A metaverse is a network of 3D virtual worlds focused on social connection. In futurism and science fiction, it is often described as a hypothetical iteration of the Internet as a single, universal virtual world that is facilitated by the use of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) headsets. Many of the technologies that make up the metaverse’s building pieces are already in advanced stages of development. Many others, on the other hand, are still some years away from being practical. We start by looking at its establishments, then, at that point, continue on toward the clever protection and security issues raised by this new worldview. At last, we feature a portion of the sweeping yet consistent ramifications on an assortment of spaces. The discussed topics are privacy user profiling in the metaverse, user privacy, and countermeasures and security perspective with humans in and out of the loop, integrity, and authentication in the metaverse, Polarization and radicalization in a singleton world, distributed denial of service, device vulnerability, and data explosion and exploitation.
