# Accept Secure Cookies From AM Over HTTP

A flag to accept secure cookies.

When `true`, the agent accepts secure cookies from AM over HTTP. When `false`, the agent rejects them.

For requests that arrive over a secure channel, by default, AM upgrades cookies to secure. However, during internal communication with the agent, AM can send these secure cookies over HTTP.
