loggedon

Loggedon refers to the state of a user having successfully authenticated with a computer system or online service and gaining access to its resources. When a user logs on, they typically provide credentials, such as a username and password, which the system verifies. Upon successful authentication, the system establishes a session for the user, allowing them to interact with the operating system or application. This session is often associated with a unique user ID and may grant specific permissions based on the user's role or account type. The process of logging on is a fundamental security measure that ensures only authorized individuals can access sensitive data and functionalities. Conversely, logging off or logging out terminates this session, revoking access to the system. The term "loggedon" is commonly used in the context of personal computers, servers, and web applications.
