I’ve started a new series focused on hardening Angular applications using browser and HTTP security controls.
In Part 1, I cover the fundamentals of security headers and how they add another layer of protection between an Angular application and the browser.
Some of the topics covered:
- 🔒 HSTS — enforcing HTTPS
- 🛡️ X-Content-Type-Options
- 🧭 Referrer-Policy
- 🎯 Permissions-Policy
- 🚫 X-Frame-Options
- 🔄 Cross-Origin Opener Policy (COOP)
- 🌐 Cross-Origin Resource Policy (CORP)
- 🔐 Content Security Policy (CSP)
The goal of this series isn’t to simply copy a list of security headers, but to understand what each header does, what problem it addresses, and how these controls fit into a real Angular deployment.
This is Part 1, where we establish the foundation. The upcoming parts will move into the actual CSP, Nginx, and Docker configuration used to serve the application.
Would love to hear how others approach security hardening for Angular applications.
