Important Dates

Publication: January/February 2024


This special issue will explore security and privacy in and for the “metaverse”, broadly construed to include the full spectrum of augmented (AR), mixed (MR), eXtended (XR), and virtual (VR) reality technologies. Though exciting, these technologies come with security, privacy, and safety risks for users and bystanders.

We seek submissions on all topics related to the metaverse and security & privacy. Topics of particular interest include but are not limited to:

  • Application security and privacy
  • Application and platform permission management
  • Hardware and platform security and privacy, including for both single-application and multi-application systems
  • Privacy, including: Exocentric (externally-facing sensor) privacy, including for bystanders and the environment, and egocentric (biometric) privacy
  • Multi-user interactions and risks
  • Consideration of marginalized and vulnerable populations
  • Identity in the metaverse
  • Usable security for AR/MR/XR/VR
  • Empirical studies of existing metaverse technologies and platforms
  • The future of advertising in AR/MR/XR/VR
