Web applications are only as trustworthy as the servers that serve them, and servers can get hacked. That鈥檚 why we are introducing WEBCAT, a tool allowing web browsers to verify the origin of code before they run it.

馃尀 Today, WEBCAT enters alpha testing! If you like to experiment with cutting-edge software, give it a try:

Help us test WEBCAT alpha

Web applications are only as trustworthy as the servers that serve them, and servers can get hacked. So, last year, we introduced WEBCAT (Web-Based Code Assurance and Transparency), a project designed to enable verifiable in-browser code for web applications. We wrote extensively about WEBCAT鈥檚 requirements, constraints, and goals.Today, we鈥檙e excited to announce the alpha release of WEBCAT. In particular, we invite community participation in a new, decentralized enrollment infrastructure.

RE: social.freedom.press/@securedr

The web鈥檚 security model has long relied on trusting the server. WEBCAT is an attempt to change that. Please help test it if you can. Your feedback at this early stage of development is extremely valuable. Excited to collaborate on this with @freedomofpressFreedom of the Press and @securedrop
