What is User Session Timeout?

Understanding User Session Timeout

User Session Timeout refers to a security mechanism that automatically logs out a user from an application or system after a period of inactivity. This measure helps prevent unauthorized access to sensitive data or resources in case the user forgets to manually log out from their account. By enforcing session timeouts, organizations can reduce the risk of unauthorized access due to a user leaving their session unattended.
