Session variable(Server side State Management) is more secure than cookies (client side State Management).
we can disable cookies, hack it or decode it.
Better to use Session variable.

Go through following link for State Management

Solution 1

Why not use Session Variables? I personally believe that username is a sensitive data that must not be stored on the browser, unless your mechanism of clearing them is working well. Using session variables is much safer.

Solution 2

Assign the username to a Session object once you SetAuthCookie and access it from the "bob.aspx"

After Authentication:

VB

Session("Username") = txtUsername.Text

In "bob.aspx":

VB

Dim username As String = Session("Username")
