Step-by-step developer workflow for using Security Headers Scanner in Webtility to standardize utility tasks.
Scenario
Security headers are often missing or inconsistent across environments, leaving avoidable browser-level attack surface. This use case shows how engineering teams can run Security Headers Scanner in a repeatable workflow.
Workflow Steps
- Collect raw input, define success criteria, and document the context before running the tool.
- Fetch response headers from a URL or paste raw header output from curl/devtools.
- Review critical and warning findings for missing or weak directives.
- Use recommended header values to patch your reverse proxy, CDN, or app server config.
- Attach output to tickets, docs, or PRs so the procedure can be reused by the team.
Expected Outcomes
- Reduce release risk by shortening validation and debugging cycles.
- Reduce manual variance and increase consistency in recurring tasks.
