Account Activity lets you check employees' login history and manage their active sessions. You can clear older sessions to strengthen a user account's security.
A web session refers to an authenticated instance of your Zoho One account. Put simply, a web session is created every time you sign in to your account from a browser, and is ended when you sign out. Signing in from your laptop is considered a web session. Signing in from a different browser in the same laptop is considered a separate web session, and signing in from a mobile browser is also considered a different web session. However, signing in from a native mobile app is not considered a web session.
Clear an active session
People generally sign in to their account, finish their tasks, and just close their browsers without signing out. This isn't a problem as long as the person is using a personal or work computer. However, it becomes a problem if your employees travel a great deal, and sign in from public computers. Leaving active sessions open in public computers is a huge security issue. If you see an employee who has multiple active sessions, clearing the older ones can help you keep your organization safe.
