FAQPage Schema
How do I add security headers like CSP and HSTS to my web application?

Security headers like CSP and HSTS protect against XSS, clickjacking, and MITM attacks by controlling browser behavior and enforcing encrypted connections. This Skill generates framework-specific configurations for Node.js, Express, Next.js, and nginx that implement these headers with recommended defaults, so you configure them once in your deployment environment.

Can I use security headers with Express or Next.js?

Yes. This Skill provides framework-specific configurations for both Express and Next.js, including examples for setting CSP directives, HSTS policies, X-Frame-Options, and CORS headers directly in your application middleware or server configuration.

What's the difference between CSP, CORS, and other security headers?

CSP controls which resources a browser can load to prevent XSS attacks. CORS manages cross-origin requests. HSTS enforces HTTPS. X-Frame-Options blocks clickjacking. Each header addresses a specific threat; this Skill configures all of them together with precise directives and policies for realistic deployment scenarios.

How do I configure CORS and referrer policies for cross-origin requests?

CORS headers control which origins can access your API, while Referrer-Policy determines what referrer information is sent with requests. This Skill generates both configurations with strict defaults and framework-specific syntax for Express, Next.js, and nginx to satisfy deployment requirements.

Do I need to configure security headers differently for nginx versus Node.js?

Yes. nginx uses server blocks and add_header directives, while Node.js frameworks like Express use middleware. This Skill provides environment-specific configurations so you apply the same security policies with the correct syntax for each deployment target.
