The following relates generally to computer security, and more particularly relates to computer security in a virtual environment, such as a metaverse. In some embodiments, one or more processors: receive a set of known events (e.g., security threats) including event classifications; receive data of layers of the virtual environment; detect events in the data of the layers of the virtual environment; and determine correlations between the events in the data of the layers of the virtual environment. The correlations may be between events in different layers of the virtual environment. The one or more processors may also predict future events by analyzing the detected events.
