How to remove ASP.Net MVC Default HTTP Headers?

Question

Each page in an MVC application I\'m working with sets these HTTP headers in responses:

X-Powered-By: ASP.NET
X-AspNet-Version: 2.0.50727
X-AspNetMvc-Version

You can also remove them by adding code to your global.asax file:

 protected void Application_PreSendRequestHeaders(object sender, EventArgs e)
 {
   HttpContext.Current.Response.Headers.Remove("X-Powered-By");
   HttpContext.Current.Response.Headers.Remove("X-AspNet-Version");
   HttpContext.Current.Response.Headers.Remove("X-AspNetMvc-Version");
   HttpContext.Current.Response.Headers.Remove("Server");
 }
