Check Text (C-279935r1156358_chk)

Verify that OL 9 logs out sessions that are idle for 10 minutes with the following command: $ sudo grep -i ^StopIdleSessionSec /etc/systemd/logind.conf StopIdleSessionSec=600 If "StopIdleSessionSec" is not configured to "600" seconds, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-84400r1156357_fix)

Configure OL 9 to log out idle sessions by editing the /etc/systemd/logind.conf file with the following line: StopIdleSessionSec=600 The "logind" service must be restarted for the changes to take effect. To restart the "logind" service, run the following command: $ sudo systemctl restart systemd-logind
