2. Security and privacy issues

Cookies are not viruses, so they cannot be duplicated or replicated on other networks to run or replicate themselves again. Cookies store information about user preferences and browsing history and can be used as a form of Spyware. Many anti-spyware products mark cookies for deletion as part of the anti-virus/anti-spyware deletion/scanning procedures.

In general, browsers have built-in privacy settings that provide different levels of cookie acceptance, validity period and automatic deletion after the user has visited a particular site. Cookies constantly transmit information back and forth between the browser and the website. If an unauthorized person intervenes in the data transmission path, the information contained in the cookie may be intercepted.

This can happen if the browser connects to the server using an unencrypted network (e.g. an unsecured WiFi network). Other cookie-based attacks involve wrong cookie settings on servers. If a website does not require the browser to use only encrypted channels, attackers can use this vulnerability to send information through unsecured channels. Attackers then use the information to gain unauthorized access to certain sites.

How you can control cookies

All modern browsers offer the possibility to change cookie settings. These settings are usually found in the "options" or "preferences" menu of your browser.

In order to understand these settings, the following links may be useful, otherwise you can use your browser's "help" option for more details.
