Senior🎓
Top SchoolAurore Fass is a tenured researcher specializing in web security and privacy with nine years of experience building practical defenses against JavaScript-based attacks and malicious or vulnerable browser extensions. She has led and grown research groups at CISPA and Stanford and will establish a new lab at Inria Université Côte d'Azur focused on Web Security & Privacy. Her work combines advanced static and dynamic analysis, machine learning, and large-scale data studies to both detect threats proactively and prioritize defenses based on real user behavior. Aurore is also an engaged peer reviewer with multiple top-reviewer awards, and she routinely supervises graduate students while translating academic insights into deployable systems. Notably, her early internships at BSI and Fraunhofer laid a strong foundation in practical static analysis and passive network asset discovery that continues to inform her empirical approach.
