Header
Value
Explanation
date
sat, 19 apr 2025 21:05:32 gmt
The date and time at which the request was made. A browser uses it for age calculations rather than using its own internal date and time; e.g. when comparing against
Max-Age
or Expires

Warning Sharing too many details about a server or web application makes it easier for hackers to target a website. Avoid specific version numbers such as 7.4.33, especially when running software that is end-of-life and/or has known security bugs. Consider removing this header. At a miminum, remove any version number.

cross-origin-resource-policy
cross-origin
The
Notice
Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy
header is part of the Fetch metadata request headers. It controls how resources can be shared across origins, enhancing security by preventing unauthorized access to resources.Notice
cross-origin
means the resource can be loaded by documents from any origin. This is the least secure option.last-modified
sat, 19 apr 2025 18:41:50 gmt
The date and time at which the origin server believes the page was last modified.
cache-control
public, max-age=0
public
means the response may be stored by all caches, including browser caches, CDNs, and shared caches.max-age
specifies the maximum amount of seconds a page is considered valid. The higher max-age
, the longer a page can be cached.Warning Because
max-age
is set to 0 seconds and no s-maxage
is set, nothing will be cached in browsers or shared caches. Caching is effectively disabled!expires
sat, 19 apr 2025 21:05:32 gmt
The date and time after which the page should be considered stale and all caches should be refreshed.
Notice Because there is a
Notice Because there is a
Cache-Control
header with a max-age
and/or s-maxage
directive, the Expires
header will be ignored. Consider removing Expires
to save bandwidth and processing power.server
cloudflare
strict-transport-security
max-age=63072000; includesubdomains; preload
The
Strict-Transport-Security
header (HSTS) instructs browsers to only use HTTPS for future connections to this domain, enhancing security by preventing downgrade attacks and cookie hijacking.max-age
specifies the time, in seconds, that the browser should remember to use HTTPS only for this domain.includesubdomains
instructs the browser that all subdomains are HTTPS-only as well.preload
recommends the domain for inclusion in browsers' preload lists. If accepted, the domain would get hardcoded into browsers as HTTPS-only.content-security-policy
upgrade-insecure-requests
The Content Security Policy (CSP) header helps prevent cross-site scripting (XSS), clickjacking, and other code injection attacks by specifying which dynamic resources are allowed to load.
upgrade-insecure-requests
instructs browsers to replace insecure URLs (HTTP) with secure URLs (HTTPS).vary
accept-encoding
The
Vary
header specifies a list of headers that must be considered when caching responses. For a cached response to be used, these headers must match between the cached response and the new request. This ensures that the appropriate version of a resource is served based on factors like language, encoding, or device type.x-turbo-charged-by

cf-cache-status
dynamic
Warning The
dynamic
status indicates that Cloudflare did not cache the requested HTML page, similar to a "cache miss". By default, Cloudflare caches static assets such as images, CSS, and JavaScript but excludes HTML due to its dynamic nature. To cache HTML content, change the 'Cache Level' setting from dynamic
to cache everything
in Cloudflare. This adjustment allows HTML pages to be cached, leveraging Cloudflare's global network for faster and more efficient content delivery.cf-ray
932f5c4fbf2fc956-iad
The
cf-ray
header provides a unique identifier for each request through Cloudflare. It's useful for troubleshooting and tracking requests in Cloudflare logs.alt-svc
h3=":443"; ma=86400
The
alt-svc
header advertises alternative services for accessing the same resource, enabling protocol negotiation and potential performance improvements.h3
indicates that HTTP/3 is supported. Variants like h3-29
refer to specific drafts of the HTTP/3 protocol.ma=86400
specifies that the alternative service information is fresh for 86400 seconds.referrer-policy
missing Add a
Referrer-Policy
header. When a visitor navigates from one page to another, browsers often pass along referrer information. The Referrer-Policy
header controls how much referrer information a browser can share. This is important to configure when private information is embedded in the path or query string and passed onto an external destination.permissions-policy
missing Add a
Permissions-Policy
header. Restrict access to device features like the camera, microphone, location, accelerometer and much more.cross-origin-embedder-policy
missing Add a
Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy
to specify how this page can be loaded by cross-origin resources.cross-origin-opener-policy
missing Add a
Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy
header to opt-in into better browser isolation.x-permitted-cross-domain-policies
missing Add a
X-Permitted-Cross-Domain-Policies
header to prevent Flash, Adobe Reader and other clients from sharing data across domains.Questions or feedback? Email dries@buytaert.net.
