 ## Remarks
 
-The authentication cache makes a copy of logins and server firewall rules stored in the `master` database, and places them in memory in the user database. Since information about contained database users is already stored in the user database, contained database users aren't part of the authentication cache.

-Continuously active connections to [!INCLUDE[ssSDS](../../includes/sssds-md.md)] require reauthorization (performed by the [!INCLUDE[ssDE](../../includes/ssde-md.md)]) at least every 10 hours. The [!INCLUDE[ssDE](../../includes/ssde-md.md)] attempts reauthorization using the originally submitted password and no user input is required. For performance reasons, when a password is reset in [!INCLUDE[ssSDS](../../includes/sssds-md.md)], the connection won't be reauthenticated, even if the connection is reset because of connection pooling. This behavior is different from the behavior of on-premises [!INCLUDE[ssNoVersion](../../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)]. If the password has changed since the connection was initially authorized, the connection must be terminated and a new connection made using the new password.
+The authentication cache makes a copy of logins and server firewall rules stored in the `master` database, and places them in memory in the user database. 
 
 A user with the **KILL DATABASE CONNECTION** permission can explicitly terminate a connection to [!INCLUDE[ssSDS](../../includes/sssds-md.md)] by using the [KILL (Transact-SQL)](../../t-sql/language-elements/kill-transact-sql.md) command.

 Requires the **KILL DATABASE CONNECTION** permission [!INCLUDE[ssSDS](../../includes/sssds-md.md)] or the admin account.
