What it does

Mozilla HTTP Observatory assesses website HTTP headers and related security settings and provides feedback for site administrators.

HTTP Observatory is useful when reviewing the configuration a website exposes to a browser. Its official description focuses on headers and related settings, so its report answers a narrower question than a full application penetration test. Use it for a site you administer and turn findings into configuration work with a retest after changes. A header assessment cannot establish that application logic or account permissions are correct.

Strengths

  • Focused HTTP configuration feedback

Best for

  • Website administrators reviewing browser-facing configuration
