Setting the Duration for User Login Before Re-login Requirement

How to edit the security token settings for system expiration and login requirements

Setting the Duration for User Login Before Re-Login is Required

The Login Expiration Time feature in the Nokē Smart Entry (NSE) system enhances security by automatically logging out inactive users. This is especially important in facilities where shared computers are common, ensuring that changes or updates are attributed to the correct user and preventing unauthorized access.

Configuring Login Expiration Time

To set the duration for how long a user can stay logged in before being required to re-login:

1. Log in to the Nokē Smart Entry Web Portal.
2. Navigate to the Settings tab.
3. Click on Facility.
4. Under the Employee Settings section, find the Login Expiration Time setting.
5. Adjust the time, selecting a duration between 5 and 120 minutes.

Key Considerations

• Maximum Time: Setting the expiration to 120 minutes (2 hours) reduces the need for frequent logins but offers less security.
• Minimum Time: A shorter duration (e.g., 5 minutes) provides a more secure environment but requires more frequent logins.
• Facility-Wide Setting: This configuration applies to all users at the facility.

By tailoring the login duration, you can balance security and convenience based on your facility's needs.

Permission Needed

• Manage Facilities 

Contact an administrator to add this permission to your role type, if needed.
