AR systems are a natural fit for cybersecurity training. Augmented reality enables a level of visualization and information sharing that can accelerate the synthesis of information. In addition, AR opens up new opportunities to gamify training and education programs. By breaking down discrete but common tasks and rewarding fast responses, we can reduce complexity and accelerate learning.
What remains to be seen is whether AR will exacerbate the talent gap. Will hackers learn how to be better criminals with AR? Will gamified AR allow criminals to learn faster?
