The "Strict-Transport-Security" HTTP header is not configured to least "15768000" seconds.

Next, create custom template to add the header directive. The custom template is placed in /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/VirtualHosts/. Name the template file "04StrictTransportSecurity". This important as the file name also dictates the order of loading. Put the following directive in the file:
### added to support ownCloud 8 ###
Header always add Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=15768000; includeSubDomains; preload"
You may test this approach by modifying the httpd.conf file directly, and adding the directive in the ServerAlias section. However, this will be overwritten when the server is updated or reconfigured.
With the template in place, upgrade and reboot the system.
signal-event post-upgrade; signal-event reboot;
When the system is up and running again, check the ownCloud admin panel to verify the warning no longer appears.
