Install helmet or add it to package.json and do a npm install / yarn whichever you use

Then make sure is required / imported

const express = require("express");
const helmet = require("helmet");

const app = express();

app.use(helmet());

// You can also use ECMAScript modules if you prefer.

import helmet from "helmet";

const app = express();

app.use(helmet());

Ok. I found another way of doing it.
