Headers Security Advanced & HSTS WP is based on OWASP CSRF to protect your wordpress site. Using OWASP CSRF, once the plugin is installed, it will provide full CSRF mitigation without having to call a method to use nonce on the output. The site will be secure despite having other vulnerable plugins (CSRF). HTTP security headers are a critical part of your website's security. After automatic implementation with Headers Security Advanced & HSTS WP, they protect you from the most notorious types of attacks your site might encounter.

All Free Features The Headers Security Advanced & HSTS WP version includes all the free features.
We have implemented FLoC (Federated Learning of Cohorts), using best practices. First, using Headers Security Advanced & HSTS WP prevents the browser from including your site in the "cohort calculation" on FLoC (Federated Learning of Cohorts). This means that nothing can call document.interestCohort() to get the FLoC ID of the currently used client. Obviously, this does nothing outside of your currently visited site and does not "disable" FLoC on the client beyond that scope.
Even though FLoC is still fairly new and not yet widely supported, as programmers we think that privacy protection elements are important, so we choose to give you the feature of being opt out of FLoC! We’ve created a special “automatic blocking of FLoC” feature, trying to always offer the best tool with privacy protection and cyber security as main targets and focus.
Analyze your site before and after using Headers Security Advanced & HSTS WP security headers are self-configured according to HTTP Security Headers and HTTP Strict Transport Security / HSTS best practices.
