CSP

In plain terms

A policy controlling which resources a page can load.

Going deeper

Content Security Policy restricts the sources of scripts, styles, and other content a page may load, mitigating XSS and injection. It whitelists trusted origins.

Under the hood

Delivered via headers; nonces/hashes allow specific inline scripts while blocking the rest.

Examples

XSS prevention, script-src directives, web security, nonces, headers.

Think of it like...

Like a guest list specifying exactly which outside resources a page is allowed to invite.
