What is SessionLimit

Scope: SessionLimit 2.0

SessionLimit is a security-driven session control and identity enforcement platform for Active Directory environments. It continuously monitors user activity across interactive and remote logins, and allows organizations to enforce policies such as session restrictions, multi-session limits, and secure authentication with 2FA.

Introduction

SessionLimit helps administrators strengthen endpoint and identity security by enabling the following:

  • Tracks user logon and logoff activity across the organization

  • Limits the number of concurrent sessions for each user

  • Enforces 2FA-based authentication

  • Performs remote administrative actions, including restarting computers and terminating user sessions centrally

  • Enhances endpoint protection by preventing unauthorized usage of shared devices

  • Ensures that the agent on shared computers cannot be bypassed or terminated without proper authentication

  • Supports TOTP-based MFA using SMS or authenticator applications

  • Ensures secure communication between agent and server over encrypted channels (HTTPS, LDAPS, etc.)

SessionLimit provides visibility and control over user sessions, dramatically reducing the risk of compromised credentials, account misuse, and lateral movement inside the network.
