> For security reasons it would be nice if there was an option in http.conf that allowed us to override the Web Server name that is applied in the outgoing headers.
> Right now asterisk will proudly announce that is it Asterisk and it's version to the world. With more and more people using ARI and WebRTC this is bad practice as people can scour the internet to find compromised version of Asterisk pretty easily.
