During the 24 hours of this year’s Places _ VR Hackathon, the focus was precisely on this. How can a more secure IT world be created – and with the help of VR or AR?[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1632410182403{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]We found the concrete challenges for 20 hackers from near and far right on our doorstep. The company Xingsys is based on Bochumer Stra\u00dfe in Gelsenkirchen-\u00dcckendorf and focuses on IT security in the field of authentication. TrustCerts and Aware7 are located in the Science Park, the venue of the Places _ VR Hackathon 2021. Their focus is on blockchain certificates and IT security training, pentesting and awareness, respectively. Each of the Gelsenkirchen start-ups has set a challenge from their own everyday business life and thus challenged the hackers to build a prototype in 24 hours that contributes to solving everyday problems.<\/p>\n

The hackers in this year’s competition not only came from very different professions and subject areas, but in some cases also from far away. One participant travelled 1500 kilometres from Barcelona to Gelsenkirchen to meet other VR enthusiasts and to deepen his own knowledge about VR.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”How did the hackathon work?” font_container=”tag:h3|font_size:30|text_align:left|color:%2327215b” google_fonts=”font_family:Alef%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1632410237750{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]The challenges were presented, the teams were formed and then it started. Friday 16:00 – Start of Coding! The teams set up at their workstations, discussed and brainstormed their ideas, fleshed them out and started implementing them. Meanwhile, there was a quick tutorial in the graphics engine “Unity” and a pizza & coaching dinner to which the programme partners and universities of the DIVR Science Award were invited. Here, the previous concepts and technical approaches were discussed and optimised together.<\/p>\n

On Saturday afternoon (4 p.m.) the final whistle blew and all teams had to stop working. The jury, led by Farina Hamann, Prof. Dr. Norbert Pohlmann and Wolfgang Jung, looked at the prototypes and solutions and put the applications through their paces. And what the jury could see were once again amazing results, considering the production period of only 24 hours.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”21844″ img_size=”full”][vc_single_image image=”21846″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text el_class=”bu” css=”.vc_custom_1632410249716{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”](c) Places _ VR Festival \/ Ole-Kristian Heyer[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”21870″ img_size=”full”][vc_single_image image=”21851″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text el_class=”bu” css=”.vc_custom_1632410265510{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”](c) Places _ VR Festival \/ Ole-Kristian Heyer[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_custom_heading text=”Teams & prototypes:” font_container=”tag:h3|font_size:30|text_align:left|color:%2327215b” google_fonts=”font_family:Alef%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1633075019835{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]GestureID
\n<\/strong>How can I verify my identity in virtual reality and thus efficiently protect certain closed areas in the virtual world from unauthorised access? For this purpose, the GestureID team has transferred the classic gesture decryption known from mobile phones into three-dimensional space and built a 3x3x3 verification grid from the 3×3 grid.<\/p>\n

Blockchaine<\/strong>
\n<\/span>In its prototype, the team has attempted to convey the complex topic of blockchain in a playful way. Instead of a sober description, you become part of the decentralised blockchain network.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1632410317220{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]RVSecure<\/strong>
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

RVSecure – or in other words Are We Secure? The solution is VR – We Are! The team’s prototype puts you in a typical office workplace full of security and privacy gaps. From the password on the mail IT to scam emails in the inbox to the mobile phone number on the whiteboard, the application simulates the security risks of an office job. The task is to find and eliminate all dangers before leaving the room.\u00a0 The jury praised the great practical relevance and easy adaptability for everyday office life.<\/p>\n

J\u00b3<\/strong>
\n<\/span>Phishing or not – that is the question here. Under constant stress, emails arrive in the VR simulation that the user has to register and then decide directly: Dangerous phishing mail or authentic message from customers or employees. If the wrong decision is made, the stress factor increases due to noises and the changing environment.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”21853″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text el_class=”bu” css=”.vc_custom_1632409865482{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”](c) Places _ VR Festival \/ Ole-Kristian Heyer[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”21855″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”50px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Winners” font_container=”tag:h3|font_size:30|text_align:left|color:%2327215b” google_fonts=”font_family:Alef%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1633074999273{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]After the jury’s deliberations and following the pitches as well as an online vote for the audience award, the following winners were determined.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”21857″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1632410359748{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Kategorie: Bester prototype<\/b>
