Australian Information Security Manual ISM-0428: Session lock configuration

Services are configured with a session lock that: - activates after a maximum of 15 minutes of user inactivity, a maximum of 12 hours of overall session time or when manually activated by users - blocks access to all session content - requires users to re-authenticate using all authentication factors to unlock the session - denies users the ability to disable the session locking mechanism.
