Security review

Written by gpt-4o-mini from 16 checks over the crawl

Your website has several important security headers missing that protect against various types of attacks, including interception, clickjacking, and data leaks. It is crucial to add these headers to improve the security posture of your site.

  • 0 high
  • 2 medium
  • 2 low
  • 0 info
  1. 1

    Missing HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS)Medium

    Why it matters: Without HSTS, users can be intercepted when typing the address without HTTPS.

    Fix: Add the header: Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains.

    Evidence: HTTP Strict Transport Security

  2. 2

    Missing X-Frame-Options headerMedium

    Why it matters: The lack of this header makes your pages vulnerable to clickjacking attacks.

    Fix: Add the header: X-Frame-Options: DENY.

    Evidence: Clickjacking protection

  3. 3

    Missing X-Content-Type-Options headerLow

    Why it matters: This could lead to serious vulnerabilities if files are interpreted incorrectly by browsers.

    Fix: Add the header: X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff.

    Evidence: MIME sniffing protection

  4. 4

    Missing Referrer-Policy headerLow

    Why it matters: Without it, full URLs of pages are shared with third-party sites.

    Fix: Add the header: Referrer-Policy: no-referrer-when-downgrade.

    Evidence: Referrer policy
