Web Security: Common Vulnerabilities And Their Mitigation - Learn by example - sessions without cookies

The video tutorial explains how to manage PHP sessions without relying on cookies, which is crucial when users disable cookies in their browsers.

The tutorial includes a practical demonstration of both methods, highlighting the importance of automatic propagation to avoid errors and maintain session consistency across web pages.
