Interpol has unveiled the first metaverse designed specifically for law enforcement communication. The aptly named Interpol Metaverse has reportedly already been developed, allowing police officers all over the world to communicate with each other and participate in immersive training courses in forensic investigation along with various other policing capabilities.
The Interpol Metaverse also allows visitors to take virtual tours of a replica of the Interpol General Secretariat headquarters in Lyon, France.
The new initiative is a key component of the global policing organization's efforts to adapt as crime moves online. Counterfeiting, data theft, ransomware, hacks, money laundering, financial fraud, phishing, and online harassment are all potential crimes in the metaverse which must be addressed.
Interpols Executive Director of Technology and Innovation, Madan Oberoi, stated that by identifying these risks early on, the team can work with stakeholders to design the appropriate governance frameworks and cut off future criminal markets before they form. Only by having these discussions, Madan continued, will Interpol be able to develop an effective response to these new types of criminal activities.
