SilverStripe module for easily adding a selection of [useful HTTP headers](https://www.owasp.org/index.php/List_of_useful_HTTP_headers).

Comes with a default set of headers configured, but can be used to add any headers you wish.

Install
-------

[](#install)

Install via [composer](https://getcomposer.org):

```
composer require guttmann/silverstripe-security-headers 1.0.*

```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Apply the extension

[](#apply-the-extension)

Apply the `SecurityHeaderControllerExtension` to the controller of your choice.

For example, add this to your `mysite/_config/config.yml` file:

```
Page_Controller:
  extensions:
    - Guttmann\SilverStripe\SecurityHeaderControllerExtension

```

### Configure the headers

[](#configure-the-headers)

Configure header values to suit your site, it's important your config is loaded after the security-headers module's config.

For example, your `mysite/_config/config.yml` file might look like this:

```
---
Name: mysite
After:
  - 'framework/*'
  - 'cms/*'
  - 'security-headers/*'
---
Guttmann\SilverStripe\SecurityHeaderControllerExtension:
  headers:
    Content-Security-Policy: "default-src 'self' *.google-analytics.com;"
    Strict-Transport-Security: "max-age=2592000"

```

Disclaimer
----------

[](#disclaimer)

I am not a security expert - the default header values used in this module are based on advice I have received from a number of sources.

They are not set in stone and if you see any issues please send me a pull request.
