What kind of authentication mechanism you are following? If you are using Form authentication (which is a default one in asp.net) you can set the timeout in the web.config itself like below: If you want to know more about Form Authentication you can use the below url: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.security.formsauthentication(v=vs.110).aspx Hope this helps!
