Priority fixes for mtv.com.lb

Ordered by impact and by how common each practice is among peers.

  1. Priority 1 · Harden

    HSTS kept for at least a year

    Observed: The homepage response did not include a Strict-Transport-Security header.

    Why it matters: HSTS tells browsers to use HTTPS for your host on every later visit, which removes the window where a first HTTP request can be intercepted.

    What to do: Send Strict-Transport-Security on HTTPS responses. Start with a short max-age (for example 300 seconds), confirm every subdomain works over HTTPS, then raise it in steps to 31536000. Add includeSubDomains only when all subdomains are HTTPS. HSTS preload is optional and hard to undo; hstspreload.org itself does not recommend it by default.

    On Cloudflare: Enable HSTS under SSL/TLS > Edge Certificates > HTTP Strict Transport Security and raise max-age gradually.

    35% of News & Media peers do this. Limit: Read from the homepage response only; other pages or regions may send different headers.

  2. Priority 2 · Harden

    DMARC policy enforces quarantine or reject

    Observed: The DMARC policy for mtv.com.lb was p=none, which asks receivers to take no action on failing mail.

    What to do: Publish DMARC with p=none and a reporting address first, fix any legitimate senders that fail SPF or DKIM alignment, then move to quarantine and finally reject.

    37% of News & Media peers do this.

  3. Priority 3 · Enable

    Structured data present

    Observed: The homepage had no JSON-LD structured data.

    What to do: Add JSON-LD for your organization and main content types, then test it with Google's Rich Results Test.

    76% of News & Media peers do this.

  4. Priority 4 · Harden

    Framing restricted

    Observed: The homepage did not send frame-ancestors or X-Frame-Options, so other sites may frame it.

    What to do: Send Content-Security-Policy: frame-ancestors 'self' (or a list of trusted origins). X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN covers older browsers.

    On Cloudflare: Add the header with a response header transform rule.

    42% of News & Media peers do this.
