WHAT IS A COOKIE?
An “Internet Cookie” (a term also known as “browser cookie” or “HTTP cookie” or simply “cookie”) is a small file of letters and numbers, that will be stored on computer, mobile terminal or other equipment of an user from which the Internet is accessed. The cookie is installed through a web-server request of a browser (e.g. Internet Explorer, Chrome) and is complete “passive” (it does not contain software, viruses or spyware and the information from the user’s hard drive cannot be accessed).
A cookie consists of two parts: the name and the content or the cookie’s value. Furthermore, the duration of a cookie is determined; technically, only the web server that has sent the cookie can access it again, when an user returns to the website associated with that web server.
The cookies themselves, do not require personal character information in order to be used and, in the most cases, do not identify personally the Internet users.
THERE ARE 2 BIG COOKIES‘ CATEGORIES:
Session cookies – these are temporarily stored in the web browser’s cookie folder, which save them until the user exit from web site or closes the browser window (for example, when logging in / logging out on a webmail account or on social networks).
Persistent cookies – these are stored on the hard drive of a computer or device (and generally depend of the cookies’ established lives). The persistent cookies include also those placed by another website than the one the user is currently visiting – known as ”third party cookies” (cookies placed by third parties) – which can be anonymously used to memorize the interests of a user, so that the advertising be delivered to users as relevant as possible.
WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF COOKIES?
A cookie contains information linking a web browser (the user) to a specific web server (the website). If a browser accesses again that web-server, it can read the already stored information and can react accordingly. The cookies provide to the users a pleasant browsing experience and support the efforts of many websites to provide comfortable services to the users: ex – online privacy preferences, site language options, shopping baskets or relevant advertising.
WHAT IS A COOKIE’S LIFE?
The cookies are managed by web servers. The life of a cookie may significantly vary, depending on the purpose for which it is placed.

However, the cookies can any time be deleted by a user through the browser settings.

SECURITY AND PROBLEMS REGARDING THE CONFIDENTIALITY
The cookies are NOT viruses! They use plain text formats. They are not made up of pieces of code so they cannot be performed and also cannot self-run. Consequently, they cannot themselves duplicate or replicate on other networks in order to run or replicate again. Because they cannot fulfill these functions, they cannot be considered as viruses.
However, the cookies can be used for negative purposes. Because they store information about the users’ preferences and browsing history, both on a certain site and on several other sites, the cookies can be used as a form of Spyware. Many anti-spyware products are aware of this and consistently mark the cookies to be deleted in the removal / scanning anti-virus / anti-spyware procedures. The browsers usually have built-in confidentiality settings that provide different levels of cookies’ acceptance, the validity period, and automatic deletion, after the user has visited a particular site.
Other security issues related to the cookies
Because the identity protection is very valuable and represents the right of every internet user, it is advisable to know what eventual problems the cookies can create. Because, between the browser and the website, are transmitted constant information in both senses, and if an attacker or an unauthorized person intervenes during the data transmission, the information contained in the cookie can be intercepted. Although, this can very seldom occur, if the browser is connected to the server using an unencrypted network (ex. an unsecured WiFi network).
Other cookie-based attacks involve wrong cookie settings on servers. If a website does not require to the browser to use only encrypted channels, the attackers can use this vulnerability to cheat the browsers and to send information through insecure channels. Further, the attackers use the information for unauthorized access to certain sites. It is very important for you to be careful in choosing the most appropriate method of personal information protection.
