HTTPS enforcement diagnostics

HSTS Status Checker

Inspect whether a domain enforces HTTP Strict Transport Security and how modern browsers treat HTTPS enforcement and downgrade protection.

HSTS tells browsers to never connect over HTTP and prevents downgrade attacks, cookie leakage, and accidental insecure access.

Once enabled, HSTS can persist in browsers for months or years, making correct SSL configuration critical.

About this tool
This HSTS checker inspects live HTTPS responses and parses the Strict-Transport-Security header. No traffic is altered, intercepted, or stored.

Results reflect how modern browsers interpret the domain at the time of inspection.
