Website Security

Instron

Secure cookies not used

When secure cookies are not used, there is an increased risk of third parties intercepting information contained in these cookies. The website configuration should be changed so that all 'Set-Cookie' headers include 'secure'.

X-Frame-Options is not deny or sameorigin

Browsers may display this website's content in frames. This can lead to clickjacking attacks.

CSP is not implemented

No valid Content Security Policy is implemented. This increases the risk of XSS and clickjacking attacks.

X-Content-Type-Options is not nosniff

Browsers may interpret files as a different MIME type than what is specified in the Content-Type HTTP header. This can lead to MIME confusion attacks.

Server information header not exposed

Ensuring the server information header is not exposed reduces the ability of attackers to exploit certain vulnerabilities.

X-Powered-By header not exposed

Information about specific technology used on the server is obscured.

HttpOnly cookies used

Using HttpOnly cookies reduces the risk of client side script attacks, by preventing cookies being read on the client.

Referrer policy is not unsafe-url

The website's Referrer Policy is not configured to allow unsafe information to be sent in the referrer header.

ASP.NET version header not exposing specific ASP.net version

Ensuring the ASP.NET version header is not exposing a specific version makes it harder for attackers to exploit certain vulnerabilities.

ASP.NET version header not exposed

Ensuring the ASP.NET version header is not exposed makes it harder for attackers to exploit certain vulnerabilities.
