HTTP Headers
Token cost: 4Enter a URL to analyze a website's HTTP headers to check for security vulnerabilities.
A HTTP request header is sent by a client to a server and includes fields like User-Agent, Host, and Accept, which might be of use in cybersecurity to detect malicious requests, fraud, or unauthorized access.
A HTTP response header is sent by the server to the client and includes fields such as Set-Cookie, Content-Security-Policy, and X-Frame-Options, which can help in implementing security measures like authentication, data integrity checks, and prevention against cross-site scripting or clickjacking attacks.
The Server field in an HTTP response header provides information about the software used by the origin server, including the name and version of the server software. In the context of cybersecurity, this information might be used by attackers to identify potential vulnerabilities specific to the server software version, so it's often recommended to minimize or obfuscate this information to reduce the potential attack surface.
