Why is the default web session timeout set to 15 minutes for new users in Sumo Logic UI?

The web session timeout is set to 15 minutes by default keeping the PCI standard requirement in mind.

According to Section 8.1.8  states “If a session has been idle for more than 15 minutes, require the user to re-authenticate to re-activate the terminal or session”.
