Gain invaluable security insights with the HTTP Observatory API.
Website
This API is best for obtaining security insights and data gathering.
The HTTP Observatory API allows developers to obtain data about HTTPS deployments, easily and quickly diagnose many of the common configuration issues that can affect HTTPS connections, and track changes to those deployments over time. This enables developers to ensure a secure experience for their users, scale their own services with valuable insights and maintain their data securely.
Key features
- The HTTP Observatory API allows developers to access HTTPS deployment data
- scan websites for common HTTPS configuration weaknesses
- and tools to monitor HTTPS configuration changes on a website.
Potential use cases
- Encryption Framework Implementation: Developers can use the HTTP Observatory API to better assess their implementation of the HTTPS protocol, scanning websites to detect and correct any weaknesses in the encryption framework.
- Network Security Evaluation: Developers can use the HTTP Observatory API to conduct comprehensive security analysis and identify vulnerabilities in their network security across multiple sites and applications
- Website Performance Improvement: Developers can use the HTTP Observatory API to monitor changes to their website configurations over time, allowing for deeper visibility into the performance of their websites and further insights into how to improve performance.
The Mozilla HTTP Observatory API has been a real game changer for our development team. It has enabled us to measure and monitor the security of our web applications with ease, giving us peace of mind that our systems are secure and our data is safe.
