Assessment objectives
Assessors don’t evaluate the requirement as one sentence; they walk these objectives one by one. Each must be met for the requirement to score.
- 3.1.11[a]conditions requiring a user session to terminate are defined.
- 3.1.11[b]a user session is automatically terminated after any of the defined conditions occur.
