Hide Server Banner and Product Info from HTTP Header
A server banner may display information about the underlying hosting environment. Usually in Applications Manager, the information that can be exposed is the product name:
- Server: AppManager
For security purposes, it may be desirable to disable the Server response header.
Steps to remove header
- Take a backup and open <apm-home>/working/apache/tomcat/conf/backup/server.xml
- Search and remove below key-value(s).
- server="AppManager"
- Restart APM and verify the response headers.
Steps to verify
- If this has been reported as a violation in your network scan tool, please re scan and confirm.
- Manual steps:
- Using cURL : curl -v <Applications Manager URL>
eg., curl -v http://apm-me-server:9090
