Privacy is one of the biggest concerns of the coming decade, ranking third among concerns of consumers. Data breaches and leaks are constantly in the news with companies like Facebook and Amazon being outed for their excessive data collection. With companies and governmental agencies tracking and monitoring individuals to a great degree, there are concerns that contemporary technologies that feed into these systems can be misused or misappropriated further. Frameworks currently in place fail to address many of these consumer's concerns and even the legal framework could use further elaboration to better control the way data is handled. In this paper, We address the current industrial standards, frameworks, and concerns of one of the biggest technology trends right now, the Augmented Reality. The expected prevalence of augmented reality applications necessitates a deeper study not only of their security but the expected challenges of users using such applications as well.

Augmented reality is changing the way its users see the world. Smart augmented-reality glasses, with high resolution Optical Head Mounted display, supplements views of the real-world using video, audio, or graphics projected in front of user's eye. The area of Smart Glasses and heads-up display devices is not a new one, however in the last few years, it has seen an extensive growth in various fields including education. Our work takes advantage of a student's ability to adapt to new enabling technologies to investigate improvements teaching techniques in STEM areas and enhance the effectiveness and efficiency in teaching the new course content. In this paper, we propose to focus on the application of Smart Augmented-Reality Glasses in cybersecurity education to attract and retain students in STEM. In addition, creative ways to learn cybersecurity education via Smart Glasses will be explored using a Discovery Learning approach. This mode of delivery will allow students to interact with cybersecurity theories in an innovative, interactive and effective way, enhancing their overall live experience and experimental learning. With the help of collected data and in-depth analysis of existing smart glasses, the ongoing work will lay the groundwork for developing augmented reality applications that will enhance the learning experiences of students. Ultimately, research conducted with the glasses and applications may help to identify the unique skillsets of cybersecurity analysts, learning gaps and learning solutions.
