We¹ve been doing 15 minute screensaver timeouts and letting portal authentication tickets last for 8 hours on the portal side. I know our Webmail has a public v. private¹ terminal option but I haven¹t explored it much other than to know the public one times out. We have chosen to fight the battle for locking the screensaver and leave the applications able to be used for the entire normal work day.

We are currently being barraged with requests to extend the inactivity timeout on our portal well beyond its current 30 minute level. How is your institution handling such issues for its portal or web mail?
