Transport security
Example: A bistro flips on the HTTPS-always setting in its Cloudflare dashboard, and the "Not secure" warning that had been scaring off party-of-twelve holiday bookers disappears, lifting its Mozilla Observatory grade from an F toward an A.
HTTPS, HSTS, security headers, Mozilla Observatory grade
The bundle of HTTP headers a modern site sends to tell browsers it should always load over HTTPS and how to handle script / frame loading safely. Graded A through F by Mozilla Observatory.
Why it matters
If a diner hits your site and sees Chrome's "Not secure" warning at the top, the party-of-12 holiday booking dies before the booker has scrolled to your menu. The fix is usually one-line additions in your CDN / hosting settings — on Cloudflare, Vercel, or Netlify it's a checkbox.
