HTTP Response Headers

HTTP Response Headers

What Are HTTP Response Headers? HTTP response headers provide metadata about the server's response to a request. Examples include `Content-Type`, which specifies the format of the response, and `Cache-Control`, which manages caching policies.

Security Headers: Headers like `Content-Security-Policy` and `Strict-Transport-Security` enforce stricter browser behavior, reducing vulnerabilities like XSS and protocol downgrades.

This is the printer-friendly version. See the colour HTTP Response Headers flyer.
