This codemod will set Django's SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE flag to True if it's False or missing on the settings.py file within Django's default directory structure.

+ SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE = True

Setting this flag on ensures that the session cookies are only sent under an HTTPS connection. Leaving this flag off may enable an attacker to use a sniffer to capture the unencrypted session cookie and hijack the user's session.
