To secure your cookie, you want it to be sent only over a secure
socket, to your application in your domain. Looking at "perldoc
CGI::Cookie" or "perldoc Apache::Cookie" shows examples.

Something like this should do-

        my $c = new CGI::Cookie(-name    =>  'foo',
                             -value   =>  'bar',
                             -expires =>  '+3M',
                             -path    =>  '/cgi-bin/database',
                             -secure  =>  1,
                             -httponly  =>  1
                            );

Sending the Cookie to the Browser
...
Under mod_perl, pass in an Apache request object:

  $c->bake($r);
