Same-Site Cookies

Same-Site cookies are a security feature that restricts how cookies are sent with requests between websites. They prevent malicious sites from accessing or sharing your login and session information by limiting cookies to only be used when you’re navigating within the same website. This helps protect against Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks, where a harmful site might attempt to perform actions on your behalf without your permission. Essentially, Same-Site cookies ensure that your sensitive data is only transmitted within trusted, intended browsing contexts, enhancing your overall online security.
