2
Increase HSTS max-age duration
HSTS is enabled but the max-age (0s) is below the recommended minimum of 15768000s (6 months). A short max-age means browsers forget the HTTPS-only policy quickly, reducing protection between visits.
Compliance Impact
PCI-DSS 4.0Req 6.4.1
Application security header configuration
Remediation Steps
1
Update header: Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload
2
Verify: curl -sI https://box.com | grep -i strict
3
Add optional security headers (Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy)
box.com has most security headers configured. Missing: Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy. These are best-practice additions that reduce the attack surface for client-side vulnerabilities.
Remediation Steps
1
Add: Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin
2
Add: Permissions-Policy: camera=(), microphone=(), geolocation=()
3
Verify with: curl -sI https://box.com | grep -iE 'content-security|x-frame|x-content|referrer|permissions'
4
Review certificate configuration
Certificate issues found for box.com: wildcard certificate in use. Wildcard certificates have a broader blast radius if compromised. Ensure auto-renewal is configured to prevent expiry. These are operational hygiene items, not immediate security risks.
Remediation Steps
1
Verify auto-renewal is configured (Let's Encrypt: certbot renew --dry-run)
2
Consider replacing wildcard cert with individual certs for critical subdomains
3
Consolidate certificate issuance to 1–2 trusted CAs
