Faronics WINSelect Overview
About WINSelect
Controlling user activity on public use and kiosk computers is a problem that IT personnel continually
face. IT administrators want a solution that allows them to easily manage user access to certain
applications, web sites, and menu options so that they can influence how a workstation is used. Faronics
WINSelect protects a computer’s purpose by empowering administrators with full control over a
workstation’s abilities. Windows operating system features, Start menu functionality, Internet Explorer
capabilities, and Windows Explorer options can all be heavily customized to suit organizational
needs.
