About session logout

If you signed in to Application Security using local login (through the sign in dialog box with username and password to LDAP or local account), and you then log out, Application Security takes you to the logout screen.

If you signed in using an SSO account for which single logout is supported, at logout, you will see a session logout screen that lets you logout from either your local account, or your SSO account.

If you click LOCAL ACCOUNT LOGOUT, Application Security logs you out of your current session only and takes you to the logout screen.

If you click SSO LOGOUT, in addition to logging out of Application Security, single logout is performed, and you are logged out from your SSO provider.

Inactive session timeout

If you have been inactive and your session is about to time out, Application Security displays one of two dialog boxes:

• If you logged in using a local login (through the login dialog box with username and password to LDAP or local account), and your session is about to time out, you see a dialog box that lets you either log out or stay logged in.

  If you click LOG OUT or your session times out due to further inactivity, Application Security logs you out of the session and takes you to the logout screen.

• If you are logged on to Application Security through an SSO provider for which single logout is supported, you see a dialog box that lets you log out of your local user account, perform an SSO logout, or stay logged in.

  If you click LOCAL ACCOUNT LOGOUT or your session times out due to further inactivity, Application Security logs you out of the session only and then takes you to the logout screen.

  If you click SSO LOGOUT, Application Security logs you out of the session, and then logs you out of your SSO provider.
