When security is enabled (using default realm) in elastic stack, it is possible for users to login multiple times simultaneously in Kibana with different browsers. For security considerations I need to disable it but couldn't find any setting. Is there any setting for it?

Hi Ilia,

Unfortunately, this feature is not available yet.  
You can track progress on this [git issue](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/18162).
