Content security policy checker

Content security policy checker reads the CSP response header for a URL. Review the policy text before assessing its directives and application behavior.

Content security policy checker: what this tool checks

Content security policy checker inspects the Content-Security-Policy response header returned by a page. It exposes the policy text so developers can confirm whether a server or content delivery configuration is sending an enforcing header. This is helpful after a deployment, hosting change, or security settings update.

How to use it

  1. Submit the complete URL of the page you want to inspect.
  2. Review whether a policy header is reported and read its directives.
  3. Compare the value with the intended configuration, then test application behavior and browser policy reports separately.

Understanding your results

Enabled means a nonempty enforcing header was found. It does not mean the policy is restrictive, complete, or correctly designed for the application. This check does not evaluate directive syntax, inspect CSP meta tags, or treat a report-only header as an enforcing policy.

Frequently asked questions

Does an enabled result prove protection from script attacks?

No. Policy strength depends on the actual directives and how the application handles content. A presence check cannot replace application security testing or a careful policy review.

Why can my browser show a policy that is missing here?

A page can use an HTML meta declaration, or responses can vary by request and delivery layer. This tool specifically reports the enforcing response header received during its own request.
