HOW IT WORKS
About the HTTP Header Checker
Headers describe response handling, caching, content type and browser security policy. The checker reports the final response and highlights whether several widely used defensive headers are present.
How to use this result
- Run the test from this server.Use a public hostname, address, prefix or ASN in the format requested above.
- Compare test locations.Choose another available 39D node or run a local command to identify location-specific behaviour.
- Correlate related evidence.Use the related tools below to compare DNS, routes, ports, TLS and application responses.
- Keep the time and context.Routing, DNS caches and reputation data change, so record when the result was collected.
Common interpretation issues
- Header presence alone does not prove that a policy is correctly designed.
- CSP can break applications when deployed without testing.
- HSTS should only be enabled after HTTPS is reliable across the required hostnames.

Frequently asked questions
Is a high score a penetration test?
No. It is a focused configuration check, not a full vulnerability assessment.
Should every site use the same CSP?
No. CSP must match the scripts, styles, frames and connections genuinely required by the application.
