    Article summary

    You can configure two global session timeout settings that apply to all users in your organization:

    • Session inactivity timeout: This setting determines how long a user can be inactive before they are automatically logged out.

      • Default: 30 minutes

      • Note: You can make this timeout shorter for stricter security, but you cannot extend it beyond 30 minutes.

    • Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) re-authentication period: This setting defines how often users must re-verify their identity using SMS-based MFA.

      • Default: 7 days (10,080 minutes)

    To change these default settings:

    1. Click your user icon at the top right of your Red Canary, then click General Settings.

    2. Enter the desired values and click Save.
