Missing headers like CSP, X-Frame-Options or HSTS expose your site to advanced threats.

No Security Headers Configured

Key Points: HTTP security headers add extra protection — and many WordPress sites forget them entirely.

Headers like Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, and X-Frame-Options are invisible guards. They stop script injection, clickjacking, and force HTTPS. Without them, your site is easier to manipulate.

📉 What You’re Missing

  • CSP: Stops inline scripts and unauthorized domains
  • HSTS: Forces HTTPS everywhere
  • X-Content-Type-Options: Prevents MIME sniffing

🛠️ How to Add Them

  1. Edit .htaccess or server config to include key headers
  2. Use plugins like “Security Headers” or “HTTP Headers”
  3. Test setup using securityheaders.com

🧠 Tip

Headers are cheap protection with big gains. They take minutes to add and can block whole classes of attacks.
