Details

Check Text (C-222464r961830_chk)

Review and monitor the application logs. Initiate a user session and observe if the log includes a time stamp showing the start of the session. Terminate the user session and observe if the log includes a time stamp showing the end of the session. If the start and the end time of the session are not recorded in the logs, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-24123r493301_fix)

Configure the application or application server to record the start and end time of user session activity.
