Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Requiring confidentiality protection for transmitted information forces use of HTTPS-only cookies via the Secure attribute, eliminating exposure of sensitive session data.

Setting the Secure attribute is a direct mechanism for protecting sensitive session data in transit over HTTPS.

prevents

Enforcing hardened configuration baselines includes requiring the Secure flag on sensitive cookies.

Secure SDLC practices explicitly require correct use of security attributes such as the cookie Secure flag.

mitigates

Use of cryptography control mandates encryption in transit, which HTTPS provides, but does not specifically require the Secure cookie attribute.

prevents

Application security requirements can include cookie security settings, but the control is broader and does not explicitly mandate the Secure attribute.

prevents

Secure coding practices directly prevent missing the Secure attribute on sensitive cookies, though the control covers many other coding issues.

degrades

Secure authentication control requires protection of session credentials, directly addressed by setting the Secure flag on sensitive cookies.
