RDP/SSH Active Sessions

The RDP/SSH Active Sessions page (labeled Gateway Sessions in the interface) provides real-time monitoring of all active SSH and RDP sessions being proxied through the ThetaSecure gateway. This is where administrators can see who is currently connected to which remote server, how long they have been connected, and take action to terminate sessions if needed. Navigate to Audit → RDP/SSH Active Sessions from the sidebar.

Gateway Sessions page with status cards, search bar, and session filters The Gateway Sessions page showing four status cards: Active Sessions (0), SSH Sessions (0), RDP Sessions (0), and Total Sessions (0). Below the cards, the filter bar provides a search field, a session status dropdown (Active), and a protocol filter (All Protocols). The session table shows "No sessions found" when no connections are active.

Status Cards

Four metric cards at the top provide a real-time count of gateway sessions.

CardDescription
Active SessionsThe number of sessions currently in progress across all protocols. Indicated by a green connection icon.
SSH SessionsThe count of active SSH sessions specifically. Indicated by a terminal icon.
RDP SessionsThe count of active RDP sessions specifically. Indicated by a desktop icon.
Total SessionsThe cumulative total of all sessions (active and completed) in the current view. Indicated by a clock icon.

Filters

The filter bar below the status cards lets you search and narrow the session list.

FilterDescription
Search by user, host, or appFree-text search to find sessions by the connected username, the target host, or the application name.
StatusDropdown to filter by session state: Active (currently connected) or completed sessions.
ProtocolsDropdown to filter by protocol: All Protocols, SSH, or RDP.
SearchButton to apply the current filter criteria.

Session Table

When sessions are active, the table displays each connection with details including the username, target host, protocol, connection start time, duration, and an action column for session management. Administrators can terminate active sessions directly from this table when needed — for example, to force-disconnect a user who should no longer have access.

Auto-Refresh

The Auto-refresh checkbox in the upper right corner (enabled by default) automatically reloads the session data at regular intervals. This ensures the dashboard always reflects the current state without manual refreshing. Uncheck it if you need to inspect a snapshot without the data changing underneath you. A manual Refresh button is available alongside it.

tip

Keep this page open during maintenance windows or incident response to monitor who is actively connected to critical servers. The ability to terminate sessions in real time gives you an immediate response option if a compromised account is detected.
