Manage your own sign-in security from this screen. Use it to change your password or control how long you can stay signed in when you step away.

## 🔑 Change Password
1. Type your new password in the **New password** field (must be at least 8 characters).
2. Re-type the same password in the **Confirm password** field.
3. Click **Change Password**.

> If the two entries don't match, or the password is too short, you'll see a message and nothing is saved. Once saved, you'll get a confirmation.

## 🕐 Session Timeout
1. Enter the number of **minutes** of inactivity before you're automatically logged out (between 5 and 480).
2. Click **Save** to apply the new value.
3. Changed your mind before saving? Click **Discard** to go back to the previous setting.

> A shorter timeout is more secure on shared or public computers; a longer one is more convenient on your own device.

## Good to know
- These settings apply to your account only — they don't affect other users.
- The **Save** button stays greyed out until you actually change the timeout value, so you always know when there's something to save.
