Inspect HTTP security headers

The audit checks the presence of CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy and Permissions-Policy.

Interpret the result

The coverage summary shows which common browser protections are declared and which header names are absent.

Catch common problems

Missing headers can leave avoidable browser attack surface, while an overly strict CSP or HSTS rollout can also break legitimate resources or subdomains.

How to interpret HTTP security headers

Presence is not the same as a secure value; this tool does not validate policy syntax, effective directives, TLS quality, application vulnerabilities, or exploitability.
