Use HTTPS for logins

HTTPS encrypts the user's login data, so it's difficult to sniff out a user's username and password on the network. You will need to enable HTTPS on your server before you turn on this setting, or else you will be locked out of your site. Every web server has a different method for enabling HTTPS, so you should check the documentation for your web server.

Secure cookies only

Template:Moodle 1.9Moodle 1.9 onwards includes a setting for secure cookies (when using HTTPS).

Please add further information here...

Only http cookies

Required Flash player version

In Moodle 1.9.7 onwards, for security a minimum Flash player version may be set. Users with a lower Flash player version will prompted to upgrade.
