Whois & Analysis for report-uri.io

Content Security Policy (CSP) is a computer security standard introduced to prevent cross-site scripting (XSS), clickjacking and other code injection attacks resulting from execution of malicious content in the trusted web page context.

It is a Candidate Recommendation of the W3C working group on Web Application Security, widely supported by the modern web browsers.

CSP provides a standard method for website owners to declare approved origins of content that browsers should be allowed to load on that website — covered types are JavaScript, CSS, HTML frames, web workers, fonts, images, embeddable objects such as Java applets, ActiveX, audio and video files, and other HTML5 features.

Browser security is the application of Internet security to web browsers in order to protect networked data and computer systems from breaches of privacy or malware.

Security exploits of browsers often use JavaScript — sometimes with cross-site scripting (XSS) — sometimes with a secondary payload using Adobe Flash.

Security exploits can also take advantage of vulnerabilities (security holes) that are commonly exploited in all browsers (including Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera, Microsoft Internet Explorer, and Safari).

In information technology, a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) is a string of characters used to identify a resource.

Such identification enables interaction with representations of the resource over a network, typically the World Wide Web, using specific protocols.

Schemes specifying a concrete syntax and associated protocols define each URI.

The most common form of URI is the Uniform Resource Locator (URL), frequently referred to informally as a web address.

More rarely seen in usage is the Uniform Resource Name (URN), which was designed to complement URLs by providing a mechanism for the identification of resources in particular namespaces.
