Session Management controls how user playback sessions are created, tracked, and validated.
Session Management refers to how OTT platforms track active user sessions during app usage and video playback. It ensures secure and consistent access across devices.
It helps enforce concurrency limits, prevent account sharing abuse, and manage device access. Session control is critical for subscription integrity.
Each playback request creates a session token tied to a user, profile, device, and entitlement. Rules determine whether additional sessions are allowed or blocked.
Session logic operates at login, playback start, and entitlement validation across all OTT devices.
