A quickstart button enables the recommended settings with a single click. #### Free vs. Pro The free version fully covers all of the basic headers listed above for the frontend. **Header Security Pro** adds: * Content Security Policy (CSP), including a report-only mode for a low-risk start. * Learning mode: collects everything the CSP would block for a configurable period and only switches to enforcing once no finding is left unreviewed. * A scanner that automatically detects the external services your site needs (scripts, styles, images, fonts, iframes) and presents them for approval, including bulk approve/block. * Separate header configuration for the backend (wp-admin); WordPress’s own services are allowed automatically. * Automatic update notifications directly in the WordPress backend. ## Skermôfbyldings [⌊Status overview (free version) with the quickstart button.

The Content Security Policy and the backend configuration are Pro features. ## Ynstallaasje 1. Install the plugin under _Plugins > Add New_ (search for “360 Orbit Header Security”), or upload the ZIP under _Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin_. 2. Activate the plugin. 3. In the **Header Security** menu, click “Run quickstart” or configure the headers individually. ## FAQ ### Can I accidentally break my website with this? The quickstart defaults are deliberately cautious (for example, X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN instead of DENY, so the WordPress Customizer keeps working). The Content Security Policy (Pro) starts in report-only mode by default, which does not block anything and only reports. ### Do I have to use a Content Security Policy? No. CSP is optional and only available in the Pro version anyway. The basic headers of the free version work independently of it. ### Who is liable in case of damage? This plugin is provided without any warranty (“as is”). The developer accepts no liability for data loss or damage resulting from the use of the plugin (for example, from an overly restrictive header configuration). Before using it, you are strongly advised to create a full backup and to test changes in report-only mode first. ### Does the plugin change files or contact other servers? By default it only sends headers from PHP. Optionally you can switch on the “.htaccess mirror”: the plugin then writes its own marked block into your `.htaccess` (so the headers also reach cached pages) and tests your homepage with a request to your own site, rolling back automatically if the site stops responding. While that block exists, the plugin also keeps a small guard file in `wp-content/mu-plugins/` that removes the block should the plugin folder ever be deleted without deactivating it; deactivating or deleting the plugin removes both. No data is sent to any other server. ### Does it work on multisite? The headers work on every site. Because the `.htaccess` file is shared by the whole network, only a super admin can use the “.htaccess mirror” on multisite. ### Which languages is the backend available in? The backend follows the language set in WordPress. Translations are provided through translate.wordpress.org and you are welcome to contribute one for your language. ## Resinsjes D’r binne gjin resinsjes foar dizze plugin. ## Meiwurkers & amp; Untwikkelders “360 Orbit Header Security” is iepen boarne software.

The quickstart updates the mirror as well. * Fix: the one-time data migration from older versions now only touches this plugin’s own, exactly named data and no longer clears the whole object cache. * Fix: values written to the .htaccess block are escaped completely; the homepage test honors the https_local_ssl_verify filter. * Fix: a Content-Security-Policy header set by another plugin is no longer overwritten by the frame-ancestors header. * Fix: uninstalling removes the data of every site on multisite and the guard file. * Changed: the German translation is now also used for Austrian, Swiss and formal German. ## Meta * Version **1.0.23** * Last updated **8 oeren yn ôl** * Active installations **Minder as 10** * WordPress version ** 6.4 of heger ** * Tested up to **7.1.2** * PHP version ** 8.1 of heger ** * Language * [English (US)](https://wordpress.org/plugins/360-orbit-header-security/) * Tags * [clickjacking](https://fy.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/clickjacking/)[hsts](https://fy.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/hsts/) [http-headers](https://fy.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/http-headers/)[security](https://fy.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/security/) [Security Headers](https://fy.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/security-headers/) * [Avansearre werjefte](https://fy.wordpress.org/plugins/360-orbit-header-security/advanced/) ## Wurdearrings Der binne noch gjin resinsjes ynstjoerd.
