We know that it is much more practical to keep passwords stored in internet browsers, not to block the computer session when we are away for short periods and keep active sessions in the browser, but often practicality is the enemy of security - even more so if we are dealing with confidential information.

Leaving data exposed on our computer screens while we are not present leaves the information vulnerable and accessible to users who are not authorized to access it. In the case of public or shared computers, the issue can be even worse, because if we forget an open session, another user who we don't even know can have access to our data.

As a solution to these issues, Microsoft provides the function to limit the session time of OneDrive for Business and SharePoint Online, so if the system detects inactivity for a period determined by the administrator, the user's session is automatically disconnected, and he/she will need enter his/her credentials again.
