Security Headers Analyzer
My Security Headers Analyzer is a tool that helps you monitor and analyze your website’s security headers.

This tool gives you insight into the effectiveness of current settings and offers recommendations to make your website more secure.
What are security headers?
Security headers are HTTP headers that provide instructions to the browser on how to handle a Web site’s content. They help enforce security policies and protect users from common attacks. Some important security headers are:
- Content Security Policy (CSP): Restricts which resources can be loaded to prevent Cross-Site Scripting (XSS).
- Strict-Transport-Security (HSTS): Forces HTTPS connections to prevent Man-in-the-Middle attacks.
- X-Frame-Options: Protects against Clickjacking by preventing your website from loading in a frame.
- X-Content-Type-Options: Prevents MIME sniffing by the browser, preventing unintended interpretation of scripts or styles.
- Referrer Policy: Regulates what referrer information is sent to other websites.
