  • Use this property with the Limit Concurrent Sessions plugin to control the number of active sessions that can be opened by a user.

    Use the Glide Authenticate Max Concurrent Interactive Sessions property with the Limit Concurrent Session (com.glide.limit.concurrent.sessions) plugin to control the number of active sessions opened for a user. The recommended value is 1, which reduces the number of sessions opened (a greater number increases the likelihood that a session could be hijacked).
