Azure SQL Database must generate audit records when concurrent logons/connections by the same user from different workstations occur.

An XCCDF Rule

Description

For completeness of forensic analysis, it is necessary to know how long a user's (or other principal's) connection to the Azure Database lasts. This can be achieved by recording disconnections, in addition to logons/connections, in the audit logs. Disconnection may be initiated by the user or forced by the system (as in a timeout) or result from a system or network failure. To the greatest extent possible, all disconnections must be logged.
