Securing React with Trusted Types

Cross-Site Scripting is game over! We've been hearing this for a while now. Unfortunately, it is still more than relevant in the world of React-based frontends. While React helps a bit, it still leaves too much to developers, aptly illustrated by numerous XSS vulnerabilities discovered in React apps. No more. In this session, we look at Trusted Types, a platform-based defense that will eradicate XSS vulnerabilities in frontends. We investigate how Trusted Types can stop typical React XSS attacks. Additionally, we explore how to configure Trusted Types for your entire application. You will walk away with a solid knowledge of Trusted Types and actionable advice to get started with Trusted Types.
