HTTP Only Cookies

HTTP-only cookies are a type of web storage that websites use to remember information about a user, such as login status. They are marked so that they cannot be accessed or modified by JavaScript on the webpage, which helps protect sensitive data from malicious scripts. This restriction enhances security by reducing the risk of cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. The cookies are automatically sent to the server with each request, enabling secure and seamless user experiences without exposing the cookie data to potential client-side vulnerabilities.
