forSecurity and Privacy
on the Web
We invite research contributions for the Security and Privacy on the Web Track at the 27th edition of The Web Conference (WWW2018), to be held April 23-27, 2018 in Lyon, France (/www2018/).
This track provides researchers working on all aspects of security and privacy on the web with the opportunity to publish and present their original contributions to a broad community of researchers and practitioners with a multitude of backgrounds and interests. As part of the WWW community, the Security & Privacy track is a premier forum for web security research, presenting the latest developments and bringing together researchers and practitioners. We solicit previously unpublished papers offering novel research contributions in any aspect of security or privacy that have a web focus. Papers may present advances in the theory, design, implementation, analysis, verification, or empirical evaluation and measurement of secure web systems. Papers that shed new light on past results by means of sound theory or thorough experimentation are also welcome.
