Episode 85: Session Management and Timeout Policies

from Certified: The CISSP Audio Course Hosted by Dr. Jason Edwards

Controlling user sessions is a critical part of maintaining secure access. In this episode, we examine how session tokens are issued, maintained, and terminated—along with techniques to prevent hijacking and session fixation attacks. We explore timeout policies, inactivity limits, reauthentication triggers, and secure logout practices. You’ll learn how session management differs across web applications, VPNs, and enterprise software. By enforcing proper session controls, CISSPs can prevent unauthorized reuse, detect anomalies, and strengthen overall authentication posture.
