1 Rule
AlmaLinux OS 9 must automatically exit interactive command shell user sessions after 10 minutes of inactivity.
Medium Severity
Terminating an idle interactive command shell user session within a short time period reduces the window of opportunity for unauthorized personnel to take control of it when left unattended in a virtual terminal or physical console. Declaring $TMOUT as read-only means the user cannot override the setting. Satisfies: SRG-OS-000029-GPOS-00010, SRG-OS-000281-GPOS-00111, SRG-OS-000163-GPOS-00072
