+<h3>Summary</h3>
+
+    <div class="warning"><h3>Warning</h3>
+      <p>The session modules make use of HTTP cookies, and as such can fall
+      victim to Cross Site Scripting attacks, or expose potentially private
+      information to clients. Please ensure that the relevant risks have
+      been taken into account before enabling the session functionality on
+      your server.</p>
+    </div>
+
+    <p>This submodule of <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_session.html">mod_session</a></code> provides support for the
+    storage of user sessions on the remote browser within HTTP cookies.</p>
+
+    <p>Using cookies to store a session removes the need for the server or
+    a group of servers to store the session locally, or collaborate to share
+    a session, and can be useful for high traffic environments where a
+    server based session might be too resource intensive.</p>
+
+    <p>If session privacy is required, the <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_session_crypto.html">mod_session_crypto</a></code>
+    module can be used to encrypt the contents of the session before writing
+    the session to the client.</p>
+
+    <p>For more details on the session interface, see the documentation for
+    the <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_session.html">mod_session</a></code> module.</p>
