AC-10 CONCURRENT SESSION CONTROL


Overview

Number Title Impact Priority Subject Area
AC-10 Concurrent Session Control HIGH P3 Access Control

Instructions
The information system limits the number of concurrent sessions for each Assignment: organization-defined account and/or account type to Assignment: organization-defined number.
Guidance
Organizations may define the maximum number of concurrent sessions for information system accounts globally, by account type (e.g., privileged user, non-privileged user, domain, specific application), by account, or a combination. For example, organizations may limit the number of concurrent sessions for system administrators or individuals working in particularly sensitive domains or mission-critical applications. This control addresses concurrent sessions for information system accounts and does not address concurrent sessions by single users via multiple system accounts.
