Securing the Future of Online Experiences??

Online worlds in film - what’s your favorite? ?? If you’re old enough to remember?TRON, The Grid was a world hidden away inside a computer, a digital utopia filled with infinite possibilities. OASIS in?Ready Player One?also comes to mind, with an immersive virtual society for anything and everything Entertainment. Meanwhile?Free City?goes optimistic once Ryan Reynolds’ NPC character Guy falls in love and a better virtual world emerges. But what belies all these virtual paradises? Security.

Now let’s go from film scenarios to our own world, as these virtual worlds are now turning into realities.?New tech always equals new risks.?If you don’t believe us, just think, who are the early adopters that embrace and push new and exciting technologies as portrayed in OASIS or Free City? Is it not the new generations, young adults, even children? We must expect that the massive amounts of data concerning these demographics will be a target of malicious intent.

Then what of governmental, healthcare, and/or administrative use cases that store data affecting your life? Remote work professionals are already well aware of this. The various online platforms we use, and will use in the future, for business communication, financial transactions, and transfer of proprietary or sensitive data, must guarantee safety and privacy. You very quickly start to understand that building security measures into the metaverse is not optional, but necessary and critical. Let’s see what others in the field are saying. ??

At?ROOM, we are acutely aware of these challenges and safety issues.?After all, we are a remote team ourselves. So we’re proactively making our platform a safe place for everyone. First, it’s powered by an engine called RealityOS? that unifies access to the virtual world by replicating reality, humanizing our experience online. Rather than using avatars that leave you wondering, we implement live-cutouts where people are present in the metaverse as themselves. ROOM is also browser-first, meaning no VR required for access. Plus our rooms are professionally designed with the user experience in mind, some even specific to business-minded cases.
