How do we build trust and safety in the industrial metaverse? Interview with Nathan from NTT

In this episode, Nathan Vandenberg from NTT joins us on board the good ship SS Tomorrow. Where he chats to us about trust and safety in the industrial metaverse. They discuss the difference between the industrial and consumer metaverse, the importance of the network in the industrial metaverse, and the application of zero trust in industrial environments. They also touch on the impact of the 5G rollout, other enabling technologies like LoRaWAN, and the environmental impact of technology. Nathan shares NTT's vision for the future, including the development of an innovative optical and wireless network. Overall, the conversation highlights the critical role of trust, security, and sustainability in the industrial metaverse.

Takeaways

The industrial metaverse is focused on connecting manufacturing and health environments through specialized networks, enabling better decision-making through the analysis of rich data.

Security is a critical consideration in the industrial metaverse, and the concept of zero trust, which involves never trusting and always verifying, is essential in ensuring trustworthiness and safety.

Consumers should be aware of the security implications of connecting various devices to their networks and should prioritize security when choosing products and services.

The rollout of 5G is a significant development in the industrial metaverse, enabling greater connectivity and performance in industrial and campus environments.

The future of the industrial metaverse involves the development of innovative technologies, such as an all-photonics-based network, to address power consumption and environmental challenges.
