Security Headers

Check security-related HTTP headers

What You Need to Know

What This Tool Does

Security Headers Check analyzes HTTP response headers to identify missing or misconfigured security headers like HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options, and others that protect against common web attacks.

Why It Matters

  • XSS Protection: Content-Security-Policy prevents cross-site scripting attacks
  • Clickjacking: X-Frame-Options stops your site being embedded in iframes
  • HTTPS Enforcement: HSTS ensures users always use secure connections
  • Compliance: Many security standards require proper header configuration

How to Read the Results

  • Present: Header is configured (check the specific policy)
  • Missing: Header not found - potential security risk
  • Grade: Overall security rating (A+ is best)
  • Recommendations: Specific improvements for each missing header
