I've been asked to help set up a tablet or pc for a public kiosk so that people can sign up to a mailing list. I'm wondering if anyone has done this, and what they found out along the way?<br />
<br />
I see there's an android app that might help, called <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gears42.surelock&hl=en" rel="ugc">SureLock</a>. It would probably allow us to have a browser app open locked to a particular webpage with a form. However, there might be better options.<br />
<br />
Edit: I sent a quick message to the company that sells SureLock, and they pointed me to a similar product called SureFox which can apparently <a href="http://www.42gears.com/blog/2012/09/build-your-own-android-based-kiosk-device-to-run-web-applications/" rel="ugc">do what I want</a> however I'm still interested in other options.

How to lock down a tablet to a particular webpage for use in a public kiosk?

Software is any set of instructions that directs a computer to perform specific tasks or operations. Computer software consists of programs, libraries and related non-executable data (such as documentation). Computer software is non-tangible, contrasted with computer hardware, which is the physical component of computers. Software written in a machine language is known as "machine code". However, in practice, software is usually written in high-level programming languages than machine language. High-level languages are translated into machine language using a compiler or interpreter or a combination of the two.

Software

Hardware includes cell phones and other digital living devices, tablets, computers, servers, peripherals and components, printers and scanners, gaming consoles, networking hardware such as routers, hubs, switches and modems, storage devices and security equipment such as firewalls and other appliances.

Hardware

Security is the protection of information systems from theft or damage to the hardware, the software, and the information on them, as well as from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide. The main goal of security is protecting assets, and an asset is anything of value and worthy of protection.  Information Security is a discipline of protecting information assets from threats through safeguards to achieve the objectives of confidentiality, integrity, and availability or CIA for short. On the other hand, disclosure, alteration, and disruption (DAD) compromise the security objectives.
