HTTP Header Inspector
The HTTP Header Inspector shows all HTTP response headers returned by any URL. It highlights security-related headers and identifies missing recommended headers.
Security Headers Checked
- Strict-Transport-Security (HSTS) - Forces HTTPS connections
- Content-Security-Policy (CSP) - Controls which resources can load
- X-Content-Type-Options - Prevents MIME type sniffing
- X-Frame-Options - Prevents clickjacking
- Referrer-Policy - Controls what referrer info is sent
- Permissions-Policy - Controls browser feature access
Other Headers
The tool also shows caching headers (Cache-Control, ETag, Last-Modified), server information, content encoding, and any custom headers. This is useful for debugging CDN configurations, caching behavior, and server settings.
