Security Challenges and Solutions in 360-Degree Augmented Reality Video Streaming: A Comprehensive Review

— This review paper examines the intricate landscape of security concerns associated with 360-degree Augmented Reality (AR) video streaming, a rapidly evolving technology with widespread applications in fields such as gaming, entertainment, and education. The immersive nature of 360-degree AR video introduces unique vulnerabilities that demand careful consideration to ensure user privacy, content integrity, and system resilience. The paper systematically explores the multifaceted security challenges across different stages of the streaming pipeline, including data capture, transmission, processing, and display. Key issues addressed encompass potential threats such as unauthorized access to sensitive user data, manipulation of streamed content, and the risk of cyberattacks targeting the underlying infrastructure. Moreover, the review delves into the state-of-the-art security solutions and frameworks developed to mitigate these challenges, ranging from encryption and authentication protocols to novel intrusion detection and prevention mechanisms. The paper critically evaluates the effectiveness of existing strategies while also proposing future directions for research and development in this dynamic and crucial intersection of augmented reality and video streaming security. By synthesizing current knowledge and offering insights into emerging trends, this review aims to provide a valuable resource for researchers, developers, and policymakers working towards establishing a secure foundation for the widespread adoption of 360-degree AR video streaming technologies
