What are HTTP Headers?
HTTP headers are key-value pairs sent by the server in its response. They indicate content type, caching rules, security protections (HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options) and more. Essential for auditing any web infrastructure.
Header Categories
Security
HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy.
Cache
Cache-Control, ETag, Expires, Last-Modified, Pragma.
Content
Content-Type, Content-Length, Content-Encoding, Content-Language.
Server
Server, X-Powered-By, Via, Age, Date.
Redirect
Location, Refresh — used during 301/302 redirects.

- CSPContent-Security-Policy restricts script sources to prevent XSS attacks.
- X-FrameX-Frame-Options prevents iframe embedding (clickjacking protection).
- X-CTOX-Content-Type-Options prevents browser MIME type sniffing.
- ReferrerReferrer-Policy controls what information is sent in the Referer header.
