This plugin enables WordPress to send HSTS header to browser
IMPORTANT NOTE: This plugin won’t work if you use any WordPress caching plugin. If this is the case, then update your .htaccess file to specify HSTS header.
HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) is a web security policy mechanism that helps to protect websites against protocol downgrade attacks and cookie hijacking.
It allows web servers to declare that web browsers (or other complying user agents) should interact with it using only secure HTTPS connections, and never via the insecure HTTP protocol

TLS is growing in complexity. Server Name Indication (SNI) now means HTTPS sites may be on shared IP addresses, or otherwise restricted. For these servers it is handy to be able to set desired HTTP headers without access to the web servers configuration or using .htaccess file.
This plug-in exposes controls for:
<ul>
<li>HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security)</li>
<li>HPKP (Public-Key-Pins)</li>
<li>Disabling content sniffing (X-Content-Type-Options)</li>
<li>XSS protection (X-XSS-Protection)</li>
<li>Clickjacking mitigation (X-Frame-Options in main site)</li>
<li>Expect-CT</li>
</ul>
HSTS is used to ensure that future connections to a website always use TLS, and disallowing bypass of certificate warnings for the site.
HPKP is used if you don’t want to rely solely on the Certificate Authority trust model for certificate issuance.
Disabling content sniffing is mostly of interest for sites that allow users to upload files of specific types, but that browsers might be silly enough to interpret of some other type, thus allowing unexpected attacks.
XSS protection re-enables XSS protection for the site, if the user has disabled it previously, and sets the “block” option so that attacks are not silently ignored.
Clickjacking protection is usually only relevant when someone is logged in but users requested it, presumably they have rich content outside of WordPress authentication they wish to protect.
Expect-CT is used to ensure Certificate Transparency is configured correctly.
