Workshop on Measurements, Attacks, and Defenses for the Web (MADWeb) 2024

The web connects billions of devices, running a plethora of clients, and serves billions of users every day. To cope with such a widespread adoption, the web constantly changes. This is evident by some browsers that have a release cycle of just six weeks. Unfortunately, these rapid changes are not always designed with a security mindset, resulting in new attack vectors that were never observed before.

The MADWeb workshop aims to attract researchers that work on the intersection of browser evolution and web security. Our goal is to create and sustain a specialized venue for discussing any aspects of web security and privacy, such as the rapid changes to browsers from a security perspective, the security implications of current web technologies, how we can protect users now, and make browsers in the future more secure without hindering the evolution of the web.
