One thing that I used to do is set some unique string in the cookie.
Lets say blah blah blah or whatever. And you can keep the same string in the web.config file as well.
When the cookie is read, it checks whether the unique string in the cookie matches the string in the web.config file.
If it is, you simply proceed and if it’s not, you discard the cookie.
So if you simply change the string in the web.config file, next time a user tries to log in, the cookie will be discarded.
