Site Update - 1/26/2020

January 26, 2020

Now that I have TLS set up for this website, I figured that it was time to see how secure it really is. I stumbled upon the tool “Security Headers” and was disappointed to see that I scored an F. I had never heard of security headers before, but decided that I wanted to implement them after doing some research.

After some failures attempting to use Netlify and Caddy, I discovered that Cloudflare has workers that could set up the headers. I highly recommend Scott Helme’s article on the matter.

After some further fiddling about, I am proud to say that this website now scores an A+! The article didn’t mention the Feature Policy header, but I was able to set it up without difficulty.

With security matters (hopefully) out of the way, my next task is to start to clean up the html and css for this website.
