To ensure your information is secure when using public computers, you can take the following steps:


  1. Deactivate browser auto-fill for forms and passwords.
  2. Regularly update all your software, especially your web browsers.
  3. Clear all data, including cookies, navigation history, and auto-fill information stored in the web browser after each session.
  4. Be sure to log out of any website accounts.
  5. When possible, use two-factor authentication to protect yourself.
  6. Never provide your username and password to random computer users or websites.
  7. Only download software, documents, or applications from trusted sources.
  8. Be sure to use a virtual private network (VPN) whenever possible.
  9. Do not save any important data on the public computer.
