Kiosk Mode helps to improve security by limiting user access to only authorized applications or functions. It prevents users from tampering with system settings, accessing sensitive data, or installing unauthorized software.
This can be particularly useful in self-service environments, such as information kiosks or ticketing systems, where users need to perform specific tasks without the complexity of a full desktop interface.
It eliminates distractions and prevents users from deviating from the intended purpose of the computer, ensuring that they stay focused on the designated tasks.
Instead of deploying and maintaining full-fledged computers for each user, organizations can use locked-down kiosk systems that provide only the necessary functionality. This can help reduce hardware and software costs, as well as simplify support and maintenance requirements.
