Configure your security policy by selecting the appropriate options for each directive. Add custom sources where needed, then click "Generate CSP" to create your policy. Copy the resulting header for implementation on your website.
Why Content Security Policy Matters for Web Security
Content Security Policies help prevent cross-site scripting (XSS), clickjacking, and other code injection attacks. By defining approved sources for content, you can significantly reduce the risk of security vulnerabilities on your website.
CSP Implementation Best Practices
- Start with strict policies: Begin with restrictive settings and gradually allow resources as needed.
- Test thoroughly: Use CSP in report-only mode initially to identify legitimate resources that need to be allowed.
- Avoid 'unsafe-inline': Whenever possible, use nonces or hashes instead of allowing all inline scripts.
- Monitor violations: Set up reporting to monitor CSP violations and adapt your policy accordingly.
- Keep updating: Review and update your CSP regularly as your website evolves.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Will implementing CSP break my website?
It might restrict certain functionalities if not configured properly. Start with report-only mode to identify issues before enforcing the policy.
Q. How do I implement the generated CSP?
You can add it as an HTTP header in your server configuration or as a meta tag in your HTML. Both options are provided in the generator output.
Q. Does CSP protect against all web attacks?
No, CSP specifically helps prevent content injection attacks like XSS. You should implement other security measures for comprehensive protection.
Q. Can I use CSP with older browsers?
Most modern browsers support CSP, but older versions may not. Always check browser compatibility and implement graceful fallbacks.
Q. Will CSP affect my website's performance?
Properly implemented CSP has minimal impact on performance. The security benefits typically outweigh any minor performance considerations.
