Session Timeout
For security reasons, Monarch-Key sessions will time out after one hour; if you launch a web application more than an hour after the initial authentication, you will be prompted to log in to the system again.
Exit Browser to Log Out
Logging out of a web-authenticated service is not guaranteed until the user has properly exited the browser window. When all Monarch-Key Web Login sessions are completed the browser must be 'Closed' (Windows) or 'Quit' (Apple) to ensure the user is logged out of every service.
Two-Factor Authentication
Because compromised MIDAS credentials pose a risk to protected data and critical services, ODU requires all students, faculty and staff to log in to University services using two-factor authentication. Learn more here.
