Explain how cookies work. Give an example of cookie abuse...

Answer / Md Matin Arif

Cookies are small text files stored on a user's computer by a web browser at the request of a website. They contain information related to the user and their preferences, such as login credentials or personalization settings. When a user visits a site, the browser sends back the cookies associated with that site. However, cookie abuse occurs when sensitive data is stored in cookies, making them vulnerable to theft if intercepted.
