Logout Functionality in Form Based Authentication Not Working Properly

Question

Hi All,
I am using Form Based Authentication in ADF. In this I followed the following steps:-
1.Login On Page.
2.In successful login page ,copy the url
3.Click on "Logout"
4.Paste the url in login page and click enter
5.System taking me back to that page where I can perform all the actions.
But the Login operation should not happen just by entering the url. Please provide any help how to stop redirecting to my authenticated page just by typing the url. This is a big security constraint.Any Assistance to this is highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards

Hi BaiG,
For Login I am using the form based authentication and for logout here is my code:-
public void logout() {
ExternalContext ectx =
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext();
HttpServletResponse response = (HttpServletResponse)ectx.getResponse();
HttpSession session = (HttpSession)ectx.getSession(false);
session.invalidate();
response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
response.setHeader("expires", "0");
response.setHeader("Pragma", "no-cache");
try {
response.sendRedirect("AdminLogin.html");
} catch (IOException e) {
logger.severe(e.getMessage());
//Inform JSF to not take the response in hands
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().responseComplete();
logger.info("session invalidated");
Thanks,
