元宇宙架构及其安全性问题分析

Metaverse Architecture and Security Issues

元宇宙自诞生之初就在全球范围内引起了广泛关注,展现出推动人类社会实现美好愿景的巨大潜力,被称为是“互联网的终极形态”。但目前元宇宙的发展仍处于起步阶段,对相关系统架构和理论技术的研究还远未成熟。因此,本文首先基于元宇宙发展现状,从元宇宙构成要素、运行体系、角色和交互模式等方面研究提出了元宇宙架构,探讨了标识解析技术在元宇宙虚实交互场景中的应用。然后,文章重点分析了元宇宙存在的安全性问题,包括虚实交互使敏感数据和隐私问题面临的形势更加严峻,开放自由的环境成为滋生各类焦点问题的温床,虚拟经济系统与现实经济系统的相互影响,自动化算法和模型的大量应用导致不公平、歧视等伦理问题突出等。最后,本文分析了元宇宙仍面临着难以实现与现实世界之间的发展平衡,缺乏对元宇宙中技术、法律和经济层面焦点问题的有效治理手段,赋能生产生活的步伐缓慢等挑战性问题。

Metaverse has attracted widespread attention all over the world since its birth,showing great potential to achieve a better vision of promoting human society.It is regarded as“the ultimate form of the Internet”.However,the development of the metaverse is still in its infancy,and the research on the relevant system architecture and theoretical technology is far from mature.Therefore,based on the current situation of metaverse development,this paper proposes a metaverse architecture from the aspects of the constituent elements,operation system,roles and interaction modes,and discusses the application of identifier resolution technology in the metaverse on the interaction between the reality and the virtual space.Then,the security issues of the metaverse are analyzed,including:the synergy of the reality and the virtual space makes sensitive data leak and privacy problems more serious;the open and free environment has become a hotbed for all kinds of hot issues;the virtual economic system and the real economic system influence each other;the massive application of automated algorithms and models brings prominent ethical problems such as unfairness and discrimination.Finally,this paper identifies the challenging problems that the metaverse still faces,such as the difficulty of achieving the balanced development with the real world,the lack of effective governance means for the key issues in the technical,legal and economic aspects of the metaverse,and the slow pace of empowering production activities and living.
