CSP
(Content Security Policy)
CSP, or Content Security Policy, is a security standard used to prevent cross-site scripting (XSS), clickjacking, and other code injection attacks. It allows website administrators to specify which sources of content are allowed to be loaded on a web page, such as scripts, stylesheets, and images.
By implementing CSP, developers can reduce the risk of malicious content being executed on their websites. For example, a CSP might restrict scripts to only those hosted on the same domain, blocking external scripts from untrusted sources. CSP is an essential tool for enhancing web application security and is supported by all modern web browsers. It is often used in conjunction with other security measures like HTTPS and CORS.
