Case Study - UAE Ministry of Interior - Cybersecurity simulation
Breaking new ground in promoting international collaboration through VR technologies with the world’s first law enforcement exercise in the Metaverse.
Overview
Held in 2022, ISALEX 2.0 was the world’s first law enforcement exercise in the Metaverse. In conjunction with the UAE Ministry of Interior and other technical partners, Mental developed a fully immersive virtual Cybersecurity exercise for over 50 law enforcement professionals from nine International Security Alliance (ISA) member states.
Communicating through both virtual reality and videoconferencing over three days, the participants faced a series of security threats, from airport drone strikes to full-scale cyber attacks, and had to work collaboratively, share information and coordinate their response.
Hosted at EXPO2020 Dubai and linked virtually to international Command Centers across Alliance countries, ISALEX 2.0 broke new ground in promoting international collaboration through VR technologies.
