# | Clickjacking |
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
# Protect website against clickjacking.
#
# The example below sends the `X-Frame-Options` response header with
# the value `DENY`, informing browsers not to display the content of
# the web page in any frame.
#
# This might not be the best setting for everyone. You should read
# about the other two possible values the `X-Frame-Options` header
# field can have: `SAMEORIGIN` and `ALLOW-FROM`.
# https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7034#section-2.1.
#
# Keep in mind that while you could send the `X-Frame-Options` header
# for all of your website’s pages, this has the potential downside that
# it forbids even non-malicious framing of your content (e.g.: when
# users visit your website using a Google Image Search results page).
#
# Nonetheless, you should ensure that you send the `X-Frame-Options`
# header for all pages that allow a user to make a state changing
# operation (e.g: pages that contain one-click purchase links, checkout
# or bank-transfer confirmation pages, pages that make permanent
# configuration changes, etc.).
#
# Sending the `X-Frame-Options` header can also protect your website
# against more than just clickjacking attacks:
# https://cure53.de/xfo-clickjacking.pdf.
#
# https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/X-Frame-Options

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
# | Content Security Policy (CSP) |
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
# Mitigate the risk of cross-site scripting and other content-injection
# attacks.
#
# This can be done by setting a `Content Security Policy` which
# whitelists trusted sources of content for your website.
#
# There is no policy that fits all websites, you will have to modify
# the `Content-Security-Policy` directives in the example below depending
# on your needs.
#
# The example policy below aims to:
#
# (1) Restrict all fetches by default to the origin of the current website
# by setting the `default-src` directive to `'self'` - which acts as a
# fallback to all "Fetch directives" (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/Fetch_directive).
#
# This is convenient as you do not have to specify all Fetch directives
# that apply to your site, for example:
# `connect-src 'self'; font-src 'self'; script-src 'self'; style-src 'self'`, etc.
#
# This restriction also means that you must explicitly define from
# which site(s) your website is allowed to load resources from.
#
# (2) The `<base>` element is not allowed on the website. This is to
# prevent attackers from changing the locations of resources loaded
# from relative URLs.
#
# If you want to use the `<base>` element, then `base-uri 'self'`
# can be used instead.
#
# (3) Form submissions are only allowed from the current website by
# setting: `form-action 'self'`.
#
# (4) Prevents all websites (including your own) from embedding your
# webpages within e.g. the `<iframe>` or `<object>` element by
# setting `frame-ancestors 'none'`.
#
# The `frame-ancestors` directive helps avoid "Clickjacking" attacks
# and is similar to the `X-Frame-Options` header.
#
# Browsers that support the CSP header will ignore `X-Frame-Options`
# if `frame-ancestors` is also specified.
#
# (5) Forces the browser to treat all the resources that are served over
# HTTP as if they were loaded securely over HTTPS by setting the
# `upgrade-insecure-requests` directive.
#
# Please note that `upgrade-insecure-requests` does not ensure
# HTTPS for the top-level navigation. If you want to force the
# website itself to be loaded over HTTPS you must include the
# `Strict-Transport-Security` header.
#
# To make your CSP implementation easier, you can use an online CSP header
# generator such as:
# https://report-uri.com/home/generate/
#
# It is encouraged that you validate your CSP header using a CSP validator
# such as:
# https://csp-evaluator.withgoogle.com
#
# https://csp.withgoogle.com/docs/
# https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Content-Security-Policy

#
# (!) Be aware that this, once published, is not revokable and you must ensure

# in max-age. When you don't have a valid SSL connection (anymore) your

#
# It is also advised (3) to only serve the HSTS header via a secure connection

# | Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks |
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
# (1) Try to re-enable the cross-site scripting (XSS) filter built

#
# The filter is usually enabled by default, but in some cases it
# may be disabled by the user. However, in Internet Explorer for
# example, it can be re-enabled just by sending the
# `X-XSS-Protection` header with the value of `1`.
#
# (2) Prevent web browsers from rendering the web page if a potential
# reflected (a.k.a non-persistent) XSS attack is detected by the
# filter.
#
# By default, if the filter is enabled and browsers detect a
# reflected XSS attack, they will attempt to block the attack
# by making the smallest possible modifications to the returned
# web page.
#
# Unfortunately, in some browsers (e.g.: Internet Explorer),
# this default behavior may allow the XSS filter to be exploited,
# thereby, it's better to inform browsers to prevent the rendering
# of the page altogether, instead of attempting to modify it.
