MADWeb 2026 PC Nomination Form 

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 not observed before.

The MADWeb workshop aims to attract researchers who 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.

Since MADWeb merged with the SecWeb workshop in 2025, we welcome ideas on extending the web with novel security mechanisms, better access interfaces (browsers), and disciplined programming abstractions to support secure web application development natively. Moreover, we invite contributions that propose provocative thoughts on re-envisioning (part of) the current web platform with security built-in by design.

We welcome work in progress and encourage junior researchers to explore new ideas before publication at a major security conference. We select papers based on their technical contributions and their potential to spark interesting discussions at MADWeb.

Use this form to nominate someone (including yourself) to be part of the MADWeb 2026 Program Committee. Question marked with (*) are mandatory. Nominations should be made before October 31, 2025.

We are looking for PC members who are committed to producing constructive, timely, high-quality reviews, interact with authors in the interactive rebuttal phases, and are interested in contributing to an ethical and supportive peer-review culture.
