A Cybersecurity Model for a Roblox-based Metaverse Architecture Framework

Article January 23, 2026

The adoption of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) headsets in futuristic and science fiction has made it possible for the Metaverse to exist as a single, universal, immersive virtual universe. By extending technology outside of our physical reality, the Metaverse alters the human experience. The four categories we use to categorize metaverse definitions are environment, interface, interaction, and social value. Currently, it is unclear what the metaverse's structure and elements are. A cybersecurity framework for these devices is necessary as the world grows more interconnected and immersive technologies are increasingly widely used in business, government, and consumer markets. Used was a literature review.

Performance of Machine Learning and Big Data Analytics paradigms in Cybersecurity and Cloud Computing Platforms

Article August 20, 2021

The purpose of the research is to evaluate Machine Learning and Big Data Analytics paradigms for use in Cybersecurity. Cybersecurity refers to a combination of technologies, processes and operations that are framed to protect information systems, computers, devices, programs, data and networks from internal or external threats, harm, damage, attacks or unauthorized access. The main characteristic of Machine Learning (ML) is the automatic data analysis of large data sets and production of models for the general relationships found among data. ML algorithms, as part of Artificial Intelligence, can be clustered into supervised, unsupervised, semi-supervised, and reinforcement learning algorithms.
