Security-header grade

A live check of the HTTP security-response headers notion.so sends, the same class of signal as securityheaders.com. Present headers score points; missing ones do not.

HEADER HYGIENE
C
60/100
Content-Security-Policy
Strict-Transport-Security (HSTS)
X-Content-Type-Options
X-Frame-Options
Referrer-Policy
Permissions-Policy
What this is, and is not. This grade reflects only the publicly observable HTTP response headers of notion.so, measured automatically. It is a hygiene indicator, one signal among many. It is not a security audit, not a penetration test, and says nothing about Notion's internal systems, code or data handling. Many secure sites score below A because headers like Content-Security-Policy are commonly omitted.

What Notion is used for

  • Team wikis and docs
  • Personal notes
  • Lightweight project databases
  • Meeting notes

FAQ

What technology does Notion use?

The hosting, CDN and framework signals we can detect from notion.so's public HTTP responses are listed in the "Detected stack" section above. They are read from the site's own responses at load time, so they reflect what Notion exposes publicly, not a definitive or complete stack list.

Is notion.so safe?

This page reports notion.so's publicly observable security-header hygiene as a letter grade, shown above. Security headers are one signal of good front-end practice, not a full security audit, and they say nothing about Notion's internal systems or data handling. Treat the grade as informational.

What are the best alternatives to Notion?

Widely used alternatives include Coda, Obsidian, Confluence. The right choice depends on your workflow, budget and team size.
