Larco announces USB kiosk security mat
March 6, 2008
BRAINERD, Minn. — Larco Manufacturing, a U.S. supplier of automatic door mats, handicap wall switches and industrial safety mats, has announced that it has released a new USB Kiosk Security Mat product.
Larco's USB kiosk security mat eliminates unattended, unauthorized access to a kiosk using a pressure sensitive mat, which is connected to a computer using a standard USB cable. Located on the floor in front of a kiosk, users must step on the mat to activate the system before log on is possible. Once a user steps off, Larco's USB kiosk mat automatically logs the user off and requires the proper credentials to log back into the system. This system prevents sensitive information from remaining on a computer screen for others to view.
Larco's kiosk mats are used in banks, hospitals, hotels and human resource stations, according to a Larco news release.
