Cookie Scanner

Challenge

Websites often set more cookies than needed — sometimes insecurely configured or for tracking. For GDPR and security, transparency about this is essential.

Approach

1. 01

   In-depth scanning of all cookies a site sets.

2. 02

   Analysis of name, value, expiry and HttpOnly status.

3. 03

   Identification of tracking mechanisms.

4. 04

   Flagging of insecure cookie configurations.

Outcome

• Makes cookie usage and tracking transparent.
• Surfaces insecure configurations (e.g. missing HttpOnly).
• Release / repo link: {{TODO: repo or release link, if public}}.

▸ Some details (metrics, timeframes) are still to be confirmed.
