Recorded: 01/29/2020 CERIAS Security Seminar at Purdue University Immersive Virtual Insanity: Exploring Immersive Virtual Reality Security and ... Abe Baggili, University of New Haven The Virtual Reality \(VR\) market could surpass \&\;\#36\; 40 Billion by 2020. The U.S. Military recently closed a deal worth \&\;\#36\; 480 Million for the Microsoft HoloLens Mixed Reality \(MR\) device. Oculus has already released the first immersive\&\;nbsp\;VR\&\;nbsp\;system that is mobile with no wires and no need for a high-end gaming PC for \&\;\#36\;399. While these are exciting times, an important question needs to be investigated: Are we ensuring the security and privacy of these systems\? In this talk I will present various experiments and findings we conducted in our lab related to the security and forensics of consumer grade immersive\&\;nbsp\;VR\&\;nbsp\;systems. I will show you how we are able to move people in physical spaces without their knowledge or consent, as well as other attacks that we coined and implemented related to immersive\&\;nbsp\;VR.\&\;nbsp\;Furthermore, we will also explore the forensic artifacts these systems produce. \(Visit: www.cerias.purdue.edu\)
