Although the metaverse is a very common term encountered nowadays, it is the concept of real-world-like artificial worlds or 3-dimensional worlds that has existed since the 1990s. As well as with the great leaps happened in information and communication technologies in every ten years; with the effect of social guidance and new technologies such as virtual reality, augmented reality and Web 3.0, data security and right of privacy issues, experienced together with the previous leaps, have come to the daylight again. In this study, the concept of "Metaverse", which has not yet been conceptually outlined, and the data security and right of privacy issues that may be encountered in the metaverse are evaluated. User profile creation, user privacy and precautions against privacy were evaluated, and research was conducted on identity management, protection of user information and community management in terms of security.

Anahtar Kelimeler

Metaverse: Sanal Dünyadan Gerçek Gizlilik ve Güvenlik Problemlerine

Öz

Metaverse günümüzde çok sık karşılaşılan bir terim olsa da 1990’lardan beri var olan, gerçek dünya benzeri yapay dünyalar veya 3 boyutlu dünyalar konseptidir. Her on yılda bir bilgi ve iletişim teknolojilerinde yaşanan büyük sıçramalarla birlikte; sanal gerçeklik, artırılmış gerçeklik, Web 3.0 gibi yeni teknolojilerin ve toplumsal yönlendirmenin de etkisiyle, daha önceki sıçramalarla beraber yaşanan veri güvenliği ve özel hayatın gizliliği sorunları yeniden gün yüzüne çıkmıştır. Bu çalışmada henüz kavramsal olarak tüm çerçevesi çizilmemiş, “Metaverse” kavramı ve metaverse’te karşılaşılabilecek veri güvenliği ve gizlilik sorunları değerlendirilmiştir. Kullanıcı profili oluşturma, kullanıcı gizliliği ve gizliliğe karşı önlemler değerlendirilmiş, güvenlik konusunda kimlik yönetimi, kullanıcı bilgilerinin korunması ve toplum yönetimine dair araştırma yapılmıştır.

Anahtar Kelimeler

Metaverse, Veri Güvenliği, Gizlilik, Sanal Gerçeklik, Artırılmış Gerçeklik, Kişisel Bilgi.
