Samesite Cookies

What will I cover in this post? Google Chrome recently released an update that began enforcing a new cookie policy. The new update affects the SameSite cookie attribute, making it Lax by default. This change will also be enforced by all other major browsers. In this post, I plan on: Describing the SameSite cookie attribute and its settings Explaining the new cookie policy and why it is important Providing some best practices Personally, from a security perspective, I think this is a great policy and that the new changes make the internet a much safer place.
