What is a common mistake when working with security headers?

IntermediateUpdated 2026-08-09

A common mistake with security headers is copying a restrictive header template without testing can break legitimate application behavior or create a false sense of security while core vulnerabilities remain. The safer approach is to design and test the behavior explicitly rather than assuming the platform or dependency will handle it automatically.
