What's your timeout policy?

OK so you’ve got a complex vault pswd memorized and you’re using 2FA. Everytime you access something in your vault it can get pretty tedious. Let’s take a standard scenario: you’re home, there’s no rogues in the house that are going to access your devices(s) and anything in your BW vault.

How long do you stay logged into BW before timing out?

I use a PIN or biometrics to unlock. Typing in my master password is too cumbersome. My unlock frequency depends on the machine - laptops that I travel with are one hour or less; desktops/servers are 4 hours or more.

How long do you stay logged into BW before timing out?

I stay logged in almost all the time, and have set the time-out action to Lock instead of Logout.

For the timeout delay, I currently use 30 min on the browser extension (my most frequently used client app), and shorter times on the other apps.

Equally critical (in my opinion) is the clipboard timeout (under Options). Currently, I have mine set to 30 seconds.
