The '''U'''BIK '''S'''ession '''A'''uthentication '''M'''anagement (USAM) is a mechanism for managing all connected users logged in to one or more {{UBIK}} databases. There are three modes of session authentication: Single Local Application, Local Application Service '''L'''ocal '''A'''pplication '''S'''ervice (LAS) and Global Application Service'''G'''lobal '''A'''pplication '''S'''ervice (GAS).
== Single Local Application ==
This means that no explicit authorization mechanism is used. The user's session is a single session which cannot be terminated by another user or the system itself. See how to [[Configure Single Local Application Authentication|configure authentication using Single Local Application]].
