Security Headers Configuration
Implement HTTP security headers to defend against common browser-based attacks.
Essential Headers
| Header | Purpose | Value |
|---|---|---|
| HSTS | Force HTTPS | max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains |
| CSP | Restrict resources | default-src 'self' |
| X-Frame-Options | Prevent clickjacking | DENY |
| X-Content-Type-Options | Prevent MIME sniffing | nosniff |
Express Implementation
const helmet = require('helmet');
app.use(helmet());
// Custom CSP
app.use(helmet.contentSecurityPolicy({
directives: {
defaultSrc: ["'self'"],
scriptSrc: ["'self'", "'unsafe-inline'"],
styleSrc: ["'self'", "'unsafe-inline'"],
imgSrc: ["'self'", "data:", "https:"],
connectSrc: ["'self'", "https://api.example.com"],
fontSrc: ["'self'", "https://fonts.gstatic.com"],
frameAncestors: ["'none'"]
}
}));
