It's essential to log out once you've completed your tasks in cPanel. Logging out signals to the web server that your session has ended. Failure to log out results in the server automatically terminating your session after a designated period. However, there exists a slight risk that an attacker could exploit the open connection before the automatic logout takes effect.
To log out from cPanel, please follow these instructions:
- If you're using the Jupiter theme, locate the user menu in the top-right corner, and then click on "Log Out":
cPanel Jupiter Logout
- For those using the Paper Lantern theme, simply click on "LOGOUT" in the top-right corner.
