- Limiting misuse of an unattended or unlocked session
- Supporting security assessments that require enforced session expiry
- Aligning with best practices for web application session management
This applies to the web user panel. API access using API keys follows separate authentication rules and is not affected by browser session idle timeout in the same way.
