Today, they are the last line of defense. Over the course of the previous decade, many security mechanisms and APIs were integrated into web browsers. These measures can protect a site from many common attacks, provide additional security functionality like authentication, and limit the attack surface by restricting what the browser is allowed to do. Learn how some of the most dangerous attacks just cease to work, and how easy it is to add an additional layer of security. This code-heavy session will demonstrate many of those security features, unveil what is coming in the future, and which functionality will be deprecated.
