About this listen

In this episode of the Bare Metal Cyber podcast, we explore the cybersecurity challenges facing Extended Reality—everything from hijacked avatars to biometric surveillance, and deepfake impersonations to XR-based social engineering. As these immersive technologies become part of everyday life, we unpack the very real threats hiding behind virtual smiles and spatial data.

We’ll walk you through the evolving XR ecosystem, show you how attackers are already exploiting it, and highlight the urgent need for stronger defenses, smarter design, and ethical boundaries. This isn't just the future of tech—it's the new frontline in cybersecurity.
