You can:

1. Remove the browser history using Windows History API
2. Prevent the browser back button event.
3. Close the tab.
4. Run a script on the previous page to check the session or the browser history state (if the next page was log out page, close the tab).

There are several options in which you can control this; and they all depend on the business requirements.

How are you managing login?

You need to disable caching on your pages so the browser needs to request them every time.

This should not the way, Instead of that you should manage session in your condition after login.
1. Assign user session after login
2. Check for user session while opening any page of your application
3. Kill all active sessions during logout.

it will prevent authorized access after login
