About Security Headers Checker

This tool analyzes your website's HTTP headers to check for crucial security parameters that protect against XSS, clickjacking, and other attacks.

It provides an overall security grade and detailed recommendations on how to configure each header for maximum protection.

How to use

  1. Enter your full website URL (e.g., https://example.com).
  2. Click the Check Headers button.
  3. Review the grade and the list of detected or missing headers.
  4. Use the recommendations to improve your server configuration.

Tips

  • Aim for an A+ grade by configuring all recommended headers.
  • Use a strict Content Security Policy (CSP) to defend against XSS.
  • Always enable HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) to enforce HTTPS.

Security header checks before publishing

HTTP security headers reduce common browser-side risks. Use the report as a deployment checklist, then verify changes in production.

HTTPS enforcement

Check HSTS only after HTTPS is stable on all subdomains you intend to include.

Framing control

Use frame-ancestors or X-Frame-Options to reduce clickjacking unless embedding is an intentional product requirement.

Content policy

Review CSP findings carefully because strict policies can block scripts, images, analytics, and third-party widgets.

Environment parity

Compare staging and production headers when a proxy, CDN, or application server sets headers in different places.

Privacy and usage

Built for quick checks without an account

Toolinix tools are designed for short developer tasks: paste a safe sample, inspect the result, copy what you need, and move on.

No login required

You can use the tools without creating an account, subscribing to a newsletter, or saving a workspace.

Local when possible

Formatters, generators, encoders, and text utilities generally run in your browser. Network diagnostics may need a server-assisted lookup to check public URLs, domains, or IPs.

Keep secrets out

Do not paste production passwords, private keys, access tokens, customer records, or regulated data into online tools unless your own security policy allows it.

Security Headers FAQ

What are security headers?
These are HTTP response headers that a server sends to the browser to enable built-in security mechanisms against common web vulnerabilities.
What does the grade mean?
The grade reflects the implementation level of security best practices. A higher grade means better protection for your users.
Do security headers affect SEO?
Yes. Search engines like Google prioritize secure websites. Headers like HSTS are positive factors.
Is it safe to check my URL here?
Yes. We only analyze your server's public response headers and do not store any data.
