Description

Brought to you by XR Guild, this panel is a cross-section of AR and XR teams using a mix of technologies for immersive play, immediate information, real-time training and augmentation of the workforce. Whether the use cases are public or private, the inquiries we engage when creating new AR and XR experiences are quite similar:

* How do we engage a process of transparency and informed consent when sharing data?
* Where do individuals and collaborative teams need insight into where data is shared or used?
* How do we effectively communicate how data is used in research and development of new tools?
* Where do we engage conversations around ethics, privacy, data sharing, identity and policy together across our industries?
* How do generative tools and AI fit into our ideas of informed data sharing and consent with attribution?
* What role can the public and the creative industries play in shaping a more cohesive and meaningful immersive and interactive experience for the public? Where are the gaps in that experience today?
* When there are disagreements between companies, nations or industry perspectives, how are these decisions being made today, and how can we be doing this work more effectively together?

Description

Theft, hacks, and phishing scams have been an issue since Web2 first existed. The problem is exacerbated in Web3 because there are so many additional vulnerabilities with smart contracts and digital wallets. The main difference between Web3 and Web2 personal security? In Web3, it only takes a single click to lose everything you own.

As businesses from gaming and entertainment industries to enterprise and DeFi platforms actively explore Web3 payment processes and currency options, the question becomes – who is responsible for protecting the user’s assets? Is it the individual or the brand? Spoiler Alert: both are. Individuals need to be savvy about the risks and businesses and brands should innovate responsibility, making built-in security frameworks a priority. Brittany Mier y Teran, Head of Business Development for Harpie, hopes to bridge the gap, sharing best practices and strategies for how brands and individuals can make safer decisions while trading, gaming, and interacting in the digital age. This talk will discuss the most common risk factors for personal asset security in Web3 – from social engineering and payload app scams to website hijacking and phishing to simple human error and social media misinformation.
