Technology
Nginx detection
Category: Server. Themerella detects this technology from public website evidence and shows confidence in the report.
Detection evidence
How Themerella detects Nginx
- server header values that include nginx
- Reverse-proxy behavior visible in redirects or headers
- Security header posture around the Nginx-served response
Report value
Every detected technology should include category, confidence, evidence, and practical risk/context so the result is useful beyond logo recognition.
False-positive boundary
What to verify before acting on Nginx evidence
- Server headers can be hidden, changed, or spoofed.
- Nginx may be only a proxy in front of another application server.
Next workflow
- Verify Nginx evidence from response headers.
- Check missing HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy findings.
- Use the fix list for server-level header hardening.
