Question

A customer is accessing a public kiosk in a company's lobby. Which of the following should be enforced to mitigate the risk of customer data being accidentally saved to the kiosk?

Options

  • AManually clearing browsing data
  • BPrivate-browsing mode
  • CBrowser data synchronization
  • DPassword manager

Explanation

To prevent customer data from being accidentally saved to a public kiosk, private-browsing mode should be enforced, as it automatically clears session data upon closing.

Common mistakes.

  • A. Manually clearing browsing data relies on the user remembering to perform the action, which is unreliable in a public kiosk setting and prone to user error.
  • C. Browser data synchronization would actively save browsing data, settings, and potentially sensitive information to a cloud service, which is the opposite of preventing data retention on the kiosk.
  • D. A password manager securely stores and autofills login credentials, but it does not prevent other forms of customer data (like browsing history or form entries) from being saved to the local device.

Concept tested. Browser security for public access
