Cookie Security Tips

Don't get caught, don't get hacked!

Tip 1: Use HTTPS, duh!

Don't even think about serving your cookies over plaintext. Your browser and its inhabitants will thank you.

Tip 2: Secure Cookies with SameSite

Don't let just anyone snoop through your cookies. Use SameSite to keep them private.

Tip 3: Be Careful with Session Cookies

Session cookies are like that one friend who always shows up uninvited. Make sure they're only there when you need them.

Tip 4: Don't Store Sensitive Data in Cookies (duh!)

Don't store your secret identity, your secret password, or your love for pineapple pizza in cookies. That's just asking for trouble.

Stay Secure, Stay Safe, Stay Cookie-Friendly!
