Security and Privacy
We invite research contributions for the 26th World Wide Web Conference Security and Privacy Track.
This track offers researchers working on security, privacy, trust, and abuse of trust to present their work to the broad community of researchers, with myriad backgrounds and interests, who will be attending the 2017 World Wide Web Conference.
Relevant topics include:
- Human and usability factors in Web security & privacy
- Measurement of online crime/underground economics
- Tracking, profiling, and countermeasures against them
- Measurement, analysis, and circumvention of Web censorship
- Browser security
- Authentication and authorization for Web-based services
- Social network security and privacy
- Security and privacy of web protocols
- Abusive content such as online harassments, spam, and fake reviews
- Privacy-enhancing technologies for the Web
- Legal, ethical, policy issues of Web security and privacy
- Security for Web services (e.g., blogs, Web feed, wikis, social networks)
- Applications of cryptography to the web
- Security in Web-based electronic commerce (e-cash, auctions, etc.)
- Security and privacy for intelligent assistants
This year’s track chairs will place special focus on encouraging reviewers to provide authors with feedback that is constructive and valuable. When reviewers advocate to accept a submission, we will ask them to identify improvements that can reasonably be implemented by the camera-ready deadline. When reviewers advocate for rejection, we will be encourage reviewers to try to identify improvements that, if made, would be sufficient to cause them to advocate for the paper in the future.
WWW is an open-access conference, as all papers that appear at the conference will be made available for free on the conference website. See the archive of last year's proceedings.
