Microsoft Corp’s new security chief Charlie Bell issued a call to arms to build protection from hackers and criminals in the emerging metaverse from the start of the new technology. "There’s going to be a lot of innovation and there will be a lot of struggling to figure out what has to be done,” Bell said in an interview.

"But I think because of the speed, there will be fast innovation on the security side.”
