Enable Content Security Policy and HTTP Public Key Pinning

Enabling Content Security Policy and HTTP Public Key Pinning in the Deep Security Manager can provide additional protection against cross-site scripting attacks and fraudulent certificates.

In multi-tenant mode, the Content Security Policy and HTTP Public Key Pin Policy settings are only available to the primary tenant.

Add a content security policy or public key pin policy

  1. Go to Administration > System Settings > Security.
  2. Enter your Content Security Policy or HTTP Public Key Pin Policy directives in the corresponding field.

    Before you enable your policies, test them by selecting the Report Only option and verifying that the policy violation reports are correct.

    You can enter individual policy directives on separate lines.

  3. Click Save at the bottom of the page.
