Spotfire® Server and Environment Security

HTTP Cookies

Spotfire Server can set the following HTTP cookies on clients that connect over the public HTTP port (default 80/433).

The Secure attribute is set only if the connection is HTTPS, not HTTP. To protect against cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks, Spotfire does not rely on using the SameSite attribute on cookies.
