Abstract Nowadays, the use of Avatars that are unique digital depictions has increased by users to access Metaverse—a virtual reality environment—through multiple devices and for various purposes. Therefore, the Avatar and Metaverse are being developed with a new theory, application, and design, necessitating the association of more personal data and devices of targeted users every day. This Avatar and Metaverse technology explosion raises privacy and security concerns, leading to cyber attacks. MV-Honeypot, or Metaverse-Honeypot, as a commercial off-the-shelf solution that can counter these cyber attack-causing vulnerabilities, should be developed. To fill this gap, we study user’s More > Graphic Abstract
