Manage Sessions

You can control session duration from the Manage Sessions page. This provides administrators with fine-grained control over session timeouts, enhancing security and compliance. You can now:

• Specify how long a session stays active when there is no user activity.

• Set a maximum session duration, regardless of user activity.

• Configure timeout values using days, hours, or minutes.

• Restore default timeout settings at any time.

• Specify the maximum number of concurrent sessions.

This is a Controlled Availability feature. Contact your Cohesity account team to enable the feature.
