Challenge cookies can be set using different methods: * "Set-Cookie" + 302/307 HTTP Location redirect * "Set-Cookie" + HTML meta refresh redirect * Custom template, JavaScript can be used here. To prevent automatic parsing, challenge cookie value can be encrypted with AES-128 in CBC mode using custom/random key and iv, and then decrypted at client side with JavaScript.
