Netkiosk Imperi 2022

If you need a utility that can lock down a computer or any Windows device and can provide access to a customized Chromium browser in order to control what activities can be executed on those devices, Netkiosk Imperi can give you a helping hand.

When the application is started, a Chromium tab will pop up in full screen. There are no exit or minimize options so nobody can close the app without knowing the hotkeys and account credentials.

Moreover, the usual controls that fall under the mouse and keyboard peripherals are mostly deactivated. A small floating bar that holds the basic functions is available and it can be moved to any location on the screen.

There are some situations that require a complete PC lock down with limited access to specific services. For example, an organized election, a payment machine, a school lab would have computers that allow access to certain applications in order to avoid abuse or unrelated processes.

Netkiosk Imperi provides access to Chromium only and the pages that can be accessed are determined by an administrator account. This way, the machine can be used for a single purpose only, without worrying about other actions.

When you are using the app for the first time you can get a little confused as there are no indications of where a close button could be. The default hotkeys for accessing the admin board and customizing or closing the app are CTRL+I and CTRL+Shift+K.

To sum it up, Netkiosk Imperi is a simple tool that puts the Chromium browser into kiosk mode, limiting the surfing access and cutting down all Windows functions to make the user concentrate on what he has to do, and to avoid unrelated operations.
