The Limit Concurrent Sessions plugin (com.glide.limit.concurrent.sessions) allows an administrator to limit the number of active sessions per user/role. It is recommended this plugin be enabled and configured to reduce the

| Category | [Session management](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/BjjvH7NbZWponRYVuTElEA "This category looks at the security of the application state for a user. Sessions should be unique to each individual, unable to be guessed or shared, and invalidated after periods of inactivity or when not required. This includes factors such as cookie attributes for cookie-based sessions, session token generation, and storage and requirements for federated re-authentication.") |
| Security risk | * Severity score: 3.7 * CVSS score: Low * Security risk details: Higher numbers of active concurrent sessions creates security risk by increasing the attack surface for account compromise, making it harder to detect unauthorized access and enforce session accountability across devices and locations. {#sc-limit-concurrent-sessions-plugin__ul_g1g_3sf_xwb} |
