After a lot of search in the web and find nothing, I wonder if there is an easy way to automatic logout the user logged through the Symfony Security after an inactive period

In Symfony 2.4, the following worked just fine for me for a 1 hour time out :

framework:
    #esi:             ~
    translator:      { fallback: %locale% }
    secret:          %secret%
    router:
        resource: "%kernel.root_dir%/config/routing.yml"
        strict_requirements: ~
        http_port: 80
        https_port: 443
    form:            ~
    csrf_protection: ~
    validation:      { enable_annotations: true }
    templating:
        engines: ['twig']
        #assets_version: SomeVersionScheme
    default_locale:  "%locale%"
    trusted_proxies: ~
    session:         
        cookie_lifetime:       3600
    fragments:       ~
    trusted_hosts:   ~
