Session cookies are temporary cookies that are created when a user logs into a website and are deleted when the user closes the browser or after a period of inactivity. They are used to maintain the user's session, such as keeping track of login status, shopping cart contents, or other temporary data. In the context of financial transactions, if a user's connection to the bank fails or they remain inactive for a certain period, the session cookie helps terminate the session automatically to ensure security and prevent unauthorized access.
