How to secure cookie attributes against session hijacking

0 votes

I am working on securing user sessions and want to understand how cookie attributes can help prevent session hijacking. My questions are:

  • What are the key attributes (HttpOnly, Secure, SameSite, Domain) and their roles in security?
  • How to configure these attributes correctly in different web servers (Apache, Nginx) and programming languages (PHP, JavaScript)?
  • What are the best practices for preventing session fixation and cross-site attacks using cookies?

A clear explanation with examples of secure cookie configurations would be useful.
