-    # -----------------------------------------------
-    # SECURITY HEADERS CONFIGURATION FOR NGINX
-    # -----------------------------------------------
-
-    # 1. HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) - CRITICAL FIX
-    # Forces the browser to use HTTPS for a year after the first successful connection.
-    # This prevents man-in-the-middle downgrade attacks (SSL Strip).
-    add_header Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload" always;
-
-    # 2. X-Frame-Options - CRITICAL FIX
-    # Stops the site from being embedded in an iframe, preventing clickjacking attacks.
-    # SAMEORIGIN allows framing by pages on the same domain. Use DENY to forbid all framing.
-    add_header X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN" always;
-
-    # 3. X-Content-Type-Options
-    # Prevents content sniffing, which can stop a browser from executing files it shouldn't.
-    add_header X-Content-Type-Options "nosniff" always;
-
-    # 4. Content Security Policy (CSP) - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED FIX
-    # A very strong defense against XSS. This is a secure-by-default, moderately restrictive
-    # policy that only allows content (scripts, styles, images) from your own domain.
-    # Customize this policy extensively as your application design requires it.
-    # The 'report-uri' can be used to monitor violations.
-    add_header Content-Security-Policy "default-src 'self'; script-src 'self'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'; img-src 'self' data:; font-src 'self';" always;
-
-    # 5. Referrer-Policy
-    # Controls how much referrer information is sent along with requests.
-    # no-referrer-when-downgrade is a common secure default.
-    add_header Referrer-Policy "no-referrer-when-downgrade" always;
-
-    # 6. Permissions-Policy (Feature-Policy)
-    # Disables potentially dangerous or unnecessary browser features like geolocation, camera, etc.
-    # Customize the features list to only include what your site needs.
-    add_header Permissions-Policy "geolocation=(), microphone=(), camera=(), payment=()" always;
-
-    # 7. Information Disclosure: Removing the Server Header
-    # While not a 'vulnerability fix,' it's good practice to remove the server version.
-    server_tokens off;
