Why is HSTS not enabled on CROWD? Does this interfere with application links?

Steven Brannan August 22, 2024

Our ACAS scans show HSTS is not enabled on CROWD  like it is for JIRA & Confluence. Is there a reason that it is not enabled?

Hi @Steven Brannan

I think the reason is that Crowd has historically been deployed behind a reverse proxy (NGINX, Apache, load balancer), which usually takes care of HTTPS termination and setting HSTS headers.

If your security team requires it, you can safely enable HSTS at the proxy level — it shouldn’t break application links.
