Manage concurrent sessions
Summary
The concurrent sessions of a system must be informed or controlled.
Description
A system that uses authenticated access sessions associated with unique users may allow simultaneous access with the same credentials. This can pose a risk for the service, the information and the system users, by allowing malicious users to interact simultaneously with the system using a valid user, thus leading to undetected identity thefts, unauthorized actions in name of the user (impersonation) and a loss of traceability of the impersonated users actions.
