Add Security Headers to HTTP Responses

[Abd-Standard]

Description

Review HTTP responses and introduce appropriate security-related headers for API and dashboard-facing services.

Acceptance Criteria

Security headers are configured intentionally.

Headers do not interfere with legitimate application behaviour.

Production and development requirements are documented.

Automated tests verify important headers.

I have experience with backend APIs, HTTP security, and application configuration. For this issue, I would review the current API and dashboard responses, introduce appropriate security headers based on the project’s existing stack, and ensure the configuration does not interfere with legitimate development or production behavior. I would also document the intended environment-specific settings and add automated tests for the key headers. I’m available to start immediately and can submit a PR within 1–2 days
