Default Hacking Infromation Kiosks

We've all seen those information kiosks that are supposed to teach us about whatever company or product. The tech savvy also know that they are easy targets. Who knew they were this easy, though?

Starting with Ctrl-H, he was able to pull up the browser's history. If the history revealed no outside search engines like Google, one could also type Ctrl-O and then type in Google there. If all else fails, one could also hit Ctrl-N and open a new tab, which will show the usual address bar and toolbar for navigation.

Which is why you run gpo's and logon scripts to disable windows+key shortcuts and disable right click. Or you buy a kiosk software that is meant for this purpose.

I call that bad administration, not hacking
