Secure the Web Forward

Session description

This session will be a precursor to our upcoming workshop, Secure the Web Forward, which aims to increase the overall security of web applications by addressing the need for clear, guidelines for web developers, identifying key emerging technologies and gaps.

Potential discussion points include:

• encouraging collaboration between web standards and open-source security initiatives
• better documentation and guides for web developers
• updates in commonly used libraries and web standard APIs
• potential for a new security-focused task force between W3C and other organisations focusing on software security such as the OpenSSF, OWASP and OpenJS Foundations
