"Installing the e-Box Kiosks and Terminals is the safest way to offer your customer access to the Internet".
The Importance of Public Access Terminals in creating extra revenue...
Your customers now need to access the Internet on a regular basis. Most people now run on-line bank accounts, they have hot-mail e-mail accounts many of which are lost if they are not accessed at least once a week. On-line auctions through sites such as eBay are now the largest and most popular global retail outlets and chatrooms are part of the daily life of many individuals.
There are many ways you can offer your customer's access to the Internet with the simplest option appearing to be to supply a standard computer and charge for the time used.
- Superficially this is fine but it means someone has to be around all of the time to monitor usage.
- You can't be sure what your customers are doing, they could be connecting to a premium charge telephone line and leave it connected when they finish, this could run for days or indeed weeks until the connection is identified and it could prove to be an extremely costly exercise. They could have checked their bank balance or carried out on-line transactions, if they've accidentally left their connection open or MS Windows has retained their password the next user has total access to their account.
An e-box Dual Interlocking unit
- If you are on a network and even the most novice hacker uses your machine they could easily break into your system and cause havoc. They could download and save numerous files including virus software. It only takes an experienced user 10 seconds to enter a command to format the drives, once this process has started it cannot be cancelled. This method is fraught with danger for both the supplier and the end user of the service.
- Some companies offer a service where a payment system linked to a timer that simply cuts the screen connection when the time expires. This saves having to have staff around all the time but as soon as the screen is reactivated all of the problems described above come into play, you've not changed the way the system works, you've just cut the visual image of what's going on inside the processor.
The e-Box software has been designed to reduce or eliminate these problems
- In simple terms it starts with the high-security software. This disables control keys and makes it impossible for anyone to access the operating system without a password; in other words, they can't change any settings on the machine or break into the network.
- The next function is to reset the Internet kiosk and clear all history files at the end of each use and not just cut the screen. This means that any links to banks or other sites are completely closed and not accessible to the next user.
- We restrict the type of files users can download. This stops access to adult and 'unsavoury' sites ensuring that users of all ages are fully protected at all times. In simple terms it starts with the high-security keyboard.
- The e-Box is continually monitored by our server to check that it is working correctly. We can also offer regular software downloads to ensure your e-Box is always operating to the latest specifications.
- The e-Box provides extra security as it has a dual locking mechanism.
