 +
 +It is recommended to protect the active session on your PC by using a screensaver that locks access by requiring a password. Another way, of course, is just to log out. 
 +
 +==== Gnome screensaver ====
 +
 +Debian 8 "Jessie" uses gnome-screensaver. It can be activated by pressing "Super+L" ("Super" is the "Windows" key on either side of the space bar.)
 +
 +Look at https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GnomeScreensaver/FrequentlyAskedQuestions for information about the Gnome screensaver. A certain amount of configuration is possible using ''dconf-editor''.
 +
 +==== xscreensaver ====
 +
 +
 +You can also use xscreensaver to lock your screen to prevent unauthorized access while you are away from the computer. 
 +
 +xscreensaver has more configuration options than gnome-screensaver, but it needs to be set up first.
 +
 +To set xscreensaver to require a password, go to Activities -> Applications -> Screensaver. This will open up a new window. At the bottom left of the window, activate "Lock Screen After" and set the time to 0 minutes for immediate locking. You can also specify the kind of screen saver(s) to use.
 +
 +The easiest way to activate xscreensaver is to use a keyboard shortcut. First you need to define the shortcut by going to Settings -> Keyboard -> Custom Shortcuts. There you can set up a new custom shortcut like:
 +
 +  Name:    xscreensaver
 +  Command: xscreensaver-command -l
 +
 +After you've added the action, don't forget to click on the right side of the line to specify the actual key combination, for example "Ctrl-Alt-L".
