WebApp Sec: Session security with cookies

Session security with cookies

From: Till Elsner <till.elsner_at_uni-duesseldorf.de>

Hi, i'm investigating in web application security this time and i'm
trying to find some information about session management with cookies
and related security issues. Can anyone point me to tips on how to
make cookie based sessions more secure and how to prevent session
hijacking? How secure is session handling using cookies and what are
the main risks? Is anyone aware of good literature on that topic?
Thanks and have a nice day
Till
