Advances in Privacy and Security for Emerging Technologies

The field of emerging technologies, including augmented reality, virtual reality, and artificial intelligence, is rapidly evolving with a growing focus on privacy and security concerns. Recent research has highlighted the need for innovative solutions to address the collection and protection of sensitive user data in these technologies. Studies have shown that users are increasingly concerned about their privacy, particularly in the context of augmented reality and virtual reality, where the collection of biometric data and other sensitive information is becoming more prevalent. Furthermore, the use of AI-powered chatbots in healthcare has raised significant privacy concerns, with many apps failing to provide adequate protection for user data. To address these concerns, researchers are developing new approaches to privacy and security, including the use of end-to-end encryption, contextual privacy policies, and reflective thinking-based privacy policies. Notable papers in this area include:

  • The Impact of Device Type, Data Practices, and Use Case Scenarios on Privacy Concerns about Eye-tracked Augmented Reality, which explores the impact of device type and use case scenarios on privacy concerns in augmented reality.
  • CryptoGuard: An AI-Based Cryptojacking Detection Dashboard Prototype, which presents a prototype for an AI-powered security dashboard to detect cryptojacking threats.
