Top issues to fix

9 issues found · 3 high priority

Missing Strict-Transport-Security header
Security
Add HSTS so browsers always use HTTPS — this closes the protocol-downgrade attack window.
Missing Content-Security-Policy header
Security
Add a CSP to control which sources can run scripts — the strongest single defense against XSS.
No H1 heading found
SEO
Add exactly one H1 describing the page's main topic — it anchors the document outline for search engines and screen readers.
Missing X-Frame-Options header
Security
Add X-Frame-Options (or a CSP frame-ancestors rule) to prevent clickjacking via hidden iframes.
1 cookie without Secure/HttpOnly flags
Security
Set Secure and HttpOnly on session cookies so they can't leak over HTTP or be read by injected scripts.
Title longer than 60 characters
SEO
Shorten the title to under 60 characters so search results don't truncate it.
