Is My Website Secure?

What Does Your Website Security Report Mean?

After scanning your domain, we analyzed key security headers and SSL configurations that impact your site's safety. Below is an explanation of each item and how to improve your results.

1. HTTPS and SSL/TLS

What it means: Your site uses HTTPS (SSL/TLS), which encrypts traffic between your site and visitors.

Why it matters: Protects users from eavesdropping, man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks, and data theft.

How to fix:

• Use a valid SSL certificate.
• Redirect HTTP traffic to HTTPS.
• Keep SSL settings updated to disable weak protocols like SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0.

2. Strict-Transport-Security (HSTS)

What it means: Forces browsers to connect to your site over HTTPS only.

Why it matters: Prevents SSL stripping attacks.

How to fix:
Add this header in your WordPress code:

phpCopyEditheader('Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=63072000; includeSubDomains; preload');

3. Content-Security-Policy (CSP)

What it means: Controls which sources (scripts, styles, images) your site is allowed to load.

Why it matters: Strong defense against Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks.

How to fix:
Set a secure CSP policy. Example:

phpCopyEditheader("Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; img-src 'self' data:; object-src 'none';");

4. X-Content-Type-Options

What it means: Stops browsers from guessing (and potentially misinterpreting) file types.

Why it matters: Prevents attacks from mislabeled files (e.g., serving executable files as images).

How to fix:

phpCopyEditheader('X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff');

5. X-Frame-Options

What it means: Prevents your site from being embedded in iframes.

Why it matters: Defends against clickjacking attacks.

How to fix:

phpCopyEditheader('X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN');

6. Referrer-Policy

What it means: Controls how much referrer data is sent when linking to other websites.

Why it matters: Reduces data leakage and improves privacy.

How to fix:

phpCopyEditheader('Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin');

7. SSL Certificate Validity

What it means: Checks whether your SSL certificate is valid, trusted, and not expired.

Why it matters: Expired or misconfigured certificates cause browser warnings and hurt SEO.

How to fix:

• Renew your SSL certificate before it expires.
• Use tools like Let’s Encrypt or commercial providers like Sectigo or DigiCert.

8. Supported SSL/TLS Protocols

What it means: Ensures your server uses strong encryption protocols (TLS 1.2, TLS 1.3).

Why it matters: Old versions like SSL 2.0 and TLS 1.0 are vulnerable and deprecated.

How to fix:
Update your web server config to disable weak protocols and enable only TLS 1.2/1.3.

9. Weak Cipher Suites

What it means: Scans for encryption algorithms that are outdated or vulnerable.

Why it matters: Attackers can exploit weak ciphers to decrypt or manipulate data.

How to fix:
Configure your server to support only strong ciphers. Avoid RC4, 3DES, NULL, or EXPORT ciphers.

Final Tip: Layer Security

Security is never one setting. Combine these protections with:

• WordPress hardening (disable XML-RPC, limit login attempts)
• Regular backups
• Plugin/theme updates
• Web Application Firewall (WAF)
