What security measures should I take when using public kiosks, such as at airports or hotels?

< 1 min read

When using public kiosks, here are some key security measures that should be taken to protect your personal information:

  1. Make sure the website you are visiting is secured (HTTPS, not HTTP).
  2. Avoid entering any personal/sensitive information unless it is absolutely necessary.
  3. Do not save login credentials, such as passwords, on the device.
  4. Make sure you log out completely once you’ve finished your tasks.
  5. Do not leave the device unattended while you are logged in.
  6. If possible, don’t use public networks; opt for a private one instead.
  7. Make sure your data connection is encrypted and secured.
  8. If sharing files, be sure to only exchange files with trusted sources.
