Abstract:
Systems and methods for demonstrating network security products in a virtual conference and providing training to attendees of a network security training session in the virtual conference through the use of gamification are provided. A server generates a dedicated virtual environment for a particular attendee. A three-dimensional (3D) user interface for the virtual conference is presented on a display of the particular attendee, which represents a simulated conference environment with each network security product being demonstrated as a virtual booth represented in the conference environment. A game client causes the particular attendee to navigate in the 3D user interface to a first virtual booth to access a first learning objective relating to demonstration of a first network security product corresponding to the first booth. A progress report, which is maintained by the server, is used to notify regarding other learning objectives that are of potential interest to the particular attendee.
